Belfort, known as the "City of the Lion," is a city in eastern France. This nickname originates from the famous sculpture, the Lion of Belfort, created by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, symbolizing the city's resistance during the 1870-1871 siege of the Franco-Prussian War. The sculpture stands as an iconic symbol of the city and is located on Place Denfert-Rochereau, at the heart of Belfort. The city is also renowned for its history, culture, and industrial heritage, notably as the headquarters of Alstom, a company specializing in transportation infrastructure.
