Around Freiburg we discover the charm of both the Black Forest Capital and the city of sustainable tourism. We learn about the legend of the Swabian merchant who fell in love with the city and proposed to buy it. For good reason because he was fascinated by the typical Bächle, the beautiful and imposing Münster cathedral, with the Gothic tower called the most beautiful in Christianity. We admire the mosaic decorations of the sidewalks and the beautiful bay windows of the buildings. But not only, we walk through charming streets and elegant shops. The tour allows you to discover the medieval city, the birth of the free municipality, its historical development up to the present day: today it is the city of sustainability and green economy.

Guided vs. Self-Guided Walking Tours
A guided walking tour offers expert insights, historical
context, and often includes skip-the-line access to major landmarks. If you
prefer flexibility, a self-guided route lets you explore
Freiburg at your own pace using maps and mobile apps.
Combining both options is ideal for a complete experience.
