1. Freiburg Main Cathedral
With its steeple visible from nearly all over town, it won’t take you long to be drawn to Freiburg’s Gothic cathedral. Construction of Freiburg Munster started in 1200. Building started in a Romanesque style but eventually changed to an elaborate Gothic style. The church became a cathedral in the 19th century and has remained the most important Catholic religious site in the city since. Visit the church to admire its architecture, attend a mass or simply relax in its quiet interior.

It is nestled within the very center of the city. Spread across three large campuses next to Freiburg’s historic heart, it makes for an impressive place to visit.

4. Old Town Hall
Immediately next to the New Town Hall you’ll find the historic Old Town Hall, which was destroyed by bombings during World War II. While the decision was made to rebuild, the duties of the town hall relocated to the newer building and the Altes Rathaus became a tourist information center and historic attraction. Visit the Old Town Hall to discover its fascinating period architecture, learn about its history and pick up tourist information to help you navigate your way through Freiburg’s winding streets and diverse history.

5. Schlossberg
Named for the French fortress that once occupied its peak, the forested Schlossberg is a favorite destination for locals wanting to escape the town center. With multiple walking tracks, shady Douglas firs and a beer garden at the summit that provides views across the Black Forest, it’s not difficult to see why. Those less inclined to hiking up hills will enjoy the scenic view from the Schlossbergbahn, a cable car that takes you from the base to summit.

6. Goethe Institute
With 159 locations in 98 countries, the Goethe Institute, the Federal Republic of Germany’s cultural organization, is widely considered the preeminent way to learn about German language and culture. On its leafy street in the Old Town, Freiburg’s Goethe Institute deserves that reputation. Housed in an ivy-covered modern building, it’s the perfect place to refresh your German or start a new study of the language. Take a class, attend events or simply meet other German students to practice your Deutsch.
