AI overview

I cannot write an accurate overview based solely on this image caption, as it provides only the location of the photograph (taken from the French Rhine shore) without information about what Breisach is or why it matters. To provide a factual, plain-language overview as requested, I would need additional context or source material.

Breisach am Rhein (, ; formerly Alt-Breisach, , in contrast to "New Breisach"; Low Alemannic: Alt-Brisach), commonly known as Breisach, is a town with approximately 16,500 inhabitants, situated along the Rhine in the Rhine Valley, in the district Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, about halfway between Freiburg and Colmar — 20 kilometres away from each — and about 60 kilometres north of Basel near the Kaiserstuhl. A bridge leads over the Rhine to Neuf-Brisach, Alsace.
