Freiburg, a city that, due to its beauty with usually mild climate, the opportunities to live well, is so much appreciated in Germany that one of two Germans would like to live there. Freiburg is considered the gateway to the Black Forest and has for years also been the German capital of the “Green Economy” and of all that is clean energy and bio-architecture. The monument-icon of the city, which for majesty and beauty, attracts more visitors is the Münster, the gothic Cathedral of Our Lady, with the imposing 116 meters high bell tower (and 329 steps if you want to climb above), landmark citizen, one of the most beautiful churches of Christendom, a place that makes even an unbeliever excited.
Among the many cultural, historical and architectural treasures, in addition to the Cathedral, the elaborate red garnet building of the Kaufhaus, the house of the guilds and merchants of the 1500s, the thirteenth century gates of the city, the Mantistor and the Schwabentor, the 15th century Rathaus, the Rathausplatz square, the university district, the city museums and many palaces to admire.
