Arlesheim Region
Close to the city, in the district of Arlesheim, the valleys are wider and the hills gentler than elsewhere in the Basel region. There are various sporting and cultural activities on offer here: you will find interesting museums as well as unique architectural landmarks, such as the Arlesheim Dom (cathedral), the only ‘Dom’ cathedral in the country. But you can also discover nature in the most populous district of the Basel region, such as the Merian Gardens and the Park im Grünen in Münchenstein or the largest English landscape garden in Switzerland, the Ermitage near Arlesheim.
