Belfort is a city in northeastern France in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté région, situated between Lyon and Strasbourg. It is the biggest town and also the administrative centre of the Territoire de Belfort département. Belfort is 400 km (249 mi) from Paris, 141 km (88 mi) from Strasbourg, 290 km (180 mi) from Lyon and 150 km (93 mi) from Zürich. The residents of the city are called "Belfortains". Once part of Alsace&Haut-Rhin département, Belfort put up 229 days of tenacious resistance to the Prussian siege of 1870–71, thanks to which it managed to remain French after the rest of Alsace was annexed to Germany. Today, the city is neither Alsatian nor Jurassien but rather its own territoire (territory), known for its Vauban-built Citadelle and its role in producing superspeedy TGV trains.Belfort makes a convenient stopover on the way from Alsace to Paris, Burgundy or the Alps.
