Café international: The University of Basel throughout the year and the centuries

A guided tour through downtown

The National & International Cooperation unit, together with the Language Center of the University of Basel, invites you to the next Café international.
We are offering a guided tour of the city in English:

The University of Basel throughout the year & the centuries

The walk is conducted by Dr. Tanja Popović, Welcome & Euraxess Center, University of Basel.

TOUR

Over the course of 60 minutes, we will introduce you to festivities, events and locations important for our university and the city. Learn which celebrations and dates are relevant for the University of Basel community throughout the year while strolling through the historic old city. Get an overview of developments and important international influence over the centuries while enjoying the mediaval architecture, hidden yards and overlooked alleys. At the end of the walk you will feel familiar with the history of the oldest university in Switzerland and hopefully have a more embedded pespective on your stay in Basel.

APÉRO

The guided tour will end at the lovely, covered outdoor terrace of the ‘Alte Universität’ above the Rhine where a rich APÉRO AROUND THE WORLD catering, incl. cold and hot drinks will be waiting for you. The tour and dinner will take place in all weather conditions. Please bring an umbrella and/or dress accordingly. We are very much looking forward to welcoming and introducing you to the University of Basel and to Basel at this occasion!
