In Freiburg, Germany

December 19, 2008 · Posted in Eurail, Germany 

Freiburg is an enchanting town, a gateway to the Black Forest. Here, the water from the Black Forest runs through the town’s streets.


The morning market outside of the Freiburg Cathedral is a throwback to centuries past.

The Cathedral itself is worth a visit, showcasing stained glass from the 13th to 16th centuries, as well as intricate carvings that told stories to parishioners who could not read.

Two places to stop by: Zum Roten Baren is Germany’s oldest inn. (Oberlinden 12) Both the food and atmosphere are excellent and traditional. At the Hausbrauerei Feierling, you can sit inside the brewery sampling the house beer, sold nowhere else.
