The Quai Saint-Thomas follows the curve of the Ill River, distinguished by its long row of half-timbered houses and the sandstone bulk of the Saint-Thomas Church. The street serves as the boundary between the island of the Grande Ile and the tannery district of Petite France. In the seventeen hundreds, this quay functioned as a hub for the city's leather trade, where barges unloaded raw hides directly into the workshops. Today, the water remains calm, reflecting the centuries-old timber frames above.
