  • Stras’Orgues 2026 — Festival of Strasbourg Organs

    Stras’Orgues is a dense, place-based festival built around one of Alsace’s most characteristic musical heritages: the organ. The 2026 programme moves through Strasbourg’s churches and chapels, from the cathedral to Saint-Paul, Saint-Thomas, Sainte-Aurélie, the Bouclier, Temple-Neuf and other historic venues. Its value is both musical and architectural. Visitors hear instruments that belong to specific buildings, traditions and acoustics, while the festival opens a route through the city’s sacred and Protestant-Catholic heritage. The programme includes recitals, open tribunes, walks from organ to organ and encounters that make the instrument visible as living heritage, not just as concert equipment. For a Grand Est culture map, this is a strong multisite entry because the locations are part of the experience.
