Overview
Freiburg is the largest city and Capital of the Black Forest. For over 900 years, Freiburg has been a center of commerce, religion, culture, and learning. The tour focuses on important places, people, and events.
Your tour begins on City Hall Plaza, where we get some background on Freiburg, view several buildings, and possibly visit a church.
Soon, you will be at Freiburg Cathedral, an architectural wonder of the Gothic Age, built over 300 years.
Later, you will visit the 13th-century Medieval City Gates, picturesque streets, and several beautiful plazas.
The Guide will share stories, anecdotes, and legends of Freiburg in a fun and engaging manner. From historical figures like Maximilian I Habsburg, Louis XIV, General Jean Victor Moreau, Maximilian Dort, and others come stories of war, politics, bravery, foolishness, and everything in between. Facts include the Hosanna Bell in Freiburg Cathedral Tower, the City Madhouse, the Mooning Gargoyle, and Freiburg's best beer and wine. Think you can climb the Cathedral Tower? One person did!
The tour ends near the restaurant quarter, where you can enjoy a wide selection of regional foods, beers, wines, and sweets.
