The perfect holiday: Freiburg

Awaken to the first rays of sunshine and take a leisurely stroll through the Münstermarkt. Around the city's landmark, Freiburg Cathedral, farmers and traders offer regional products such as fruit, vegetables, wine, home-baked bread, olives, and many other delicacies. An absolute must for any Münstermarkt visit is the Münsterwurst, the so-called "Lange Rote" (long red sausage).

From the Münstermarkt, take a stroll on to Konviktstraße, located in Freiburg's beautiful old town. Walk through Freiburg's most beautiful alley surrounded by medieval facades, enjoy the special atmosphere and step into inviting little boutiques and family-owned shops.  

Time for lunch! Freiburg also has many culinary delights. The market hall is perfect for sampling a wide range of regional and international dishes, ensuring you’ll be spoiled for choice.

Throw yourself into shopping pleasure. Stroll along the Freiburg Bächle (brooks) and explore a mix of big brands and unique local shops – there’s something for every taste. You can find more tips for walking through Freiburg here.

Are you more in the mood for art and culture? Visit the Augustinermuseum and discover art from the Middle Ages to the 19th century. Special exhibitions cover a wide range of fascinating topics.

Finally, for the perfect afternoon, a confectionary break is not to be missed. Freiburg’s cafés and pastry shops can be very tempting. Indulge in delicious cakes and pastries while soaking up the city’s charming atmosphere.

Attention gourmets and connoisseurs: the heart of Baden wine beats here. End your eventful day at "Alte Wache - Haus der Badischen Weine" (Old Guard House of Baden Wine) with a stunning view of the cathedral and experience wine culture at its finest.

Another must-visit spot is the Schlossberg (Castle Mountain) with its Canon Square viewpoint. Enjoy the 360° panorama from the beer garden with a Radler (shandy) while taking in the last hours of sunshine – the perfect way to end a memorable day in Freiburg.
