"Freiburg is far too good to be true" writes the writer Jürgen Lodemann.. Freiburg is characterized by a historic old town centered around the 800 year old Münster, an gothic style cathedral. On the western side of the black forest Freiburg sits on the German side of the Dreiländerec, where Switzerland, France and Germay come together on the Rhine River. The world rewarded wine region Baden is known for its endless sunshine, funtastic wines and of course the laidback lifestyle and culinary culture that come with the two.
