Regional Council of Alsace
Regional legislature in France
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Regional Council of Alsace (French: Conseil régional d'Alsace, Alsatian: Regionalrööt vum Elsass) was the regional council of the French region of Alsace from 1982 to 2015. As a result of reforms, the administrative region of Alsace merged with two other regions to form Grand Est, effective 1 January 2016, at which point the regional councils of Alsace, Lorraine, and Champagne-Ardenne were superseded by the Regional Council of Grand Est.[1][2]
