Overview
Heir to the Strassburger Ruderverein founded in 1881, which became the Cercle nautique de Strasbourg in 1918, Aviron Strasbourg 1881 rows in the heart of Europe: its course of about 6 km runs from the club, opposite the European Parliament, along the canal through several basins to the south lock. Recreational outings with crews made up on the spot by the coach, AviFit indoor rowing, a rowing tank in winter and a racing squad that carries on a long tradition, from the 1922 European title to recent world and Olympic selections. Beginners and experienced rowers are both welcome.
