photo - Grossbasel viewed from Kleinbasel 1986

            The Rhine, bending northward, divides Basel, Switzerland into two parts, linked by six bridges. Kleinbasel, to the north, is the Rhine port and industrial section.  Grossbasel, the older commercial and cultural center on the south bank, is dominated by the Romanesque and Gothic-style Münster (Protestant). Consecrated in 1019, it was Basel’s cathedral until 1528 and has a monumental slab to Erasmus, who is entombed there. Other notable buildings are the late Gothic Rathaus, or town hall (1504–21); the Church of St. Martin, the oldest religious foundation in Basel; and the former 14th-century Franciscan church, now housing the historical museum. There are three surviving medieval city gates, of which the 15th-century Spalentor (St. Paul’s Gate) is one of the finest in Europe.
