Drone aerial video in Strasbourg

Free quote — aerial video in Strasbourg

A film shot in Strasbourg has a ready-made opening: arriving along the Rhine and the Ill, revealing the bridges, then Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg as the tracking shot unfolds. Our pilots write these shots with you at the scout, then fly them in the chosen light window. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Strasbourg and its department (67) match equipment and flight plan to each order.

Strasbourg has one peculiarity: a prohibited area protects the European institutions district (Parliament, Council of Europe, Human Rights Court), on top of the Strasbourg-Entzheim CTR to the south-west. The immediate German border means flights must not spill into neighbouring airspace, and the UNESCO-listed Grande Île falls under the built-up-area scenario with prefecture notification. The local economy offers fine missions: inspection of the river port and structures on the Rhine, thermography of demanding half-timbered old buildings, monitoring of the Archipel business district extensions, imagery for the Christmas market — France's oldest — and for the Alsatian wine route starting just outside town.

Airspace and formalities in Strasbourg

A shoot in Strasbourg needs lead time: the overflight ban (Zone interdite du quartier des institutions européennes) requires a specific authorisation per flight plan, filed well ahead of the shoot date — we build it into the production schedule.

A drone shoot follows open-category rules in clear areas and moves to the specific category (STS-01, prior declaration) as soon as it flies over a populated zone; productions receive insurance certificates and permits. Full regulations and rates: aerial video across France →

Information checked against the regulations in force as of August 2026 (EU regulations 2019/945 and 2019/947, applicable French decrees).
