Frieburg

Is there a real Black forest? The answer lies in Frieburg. The forest we are talking of here is not a cake, but a real forest land with green pastures found in the aged city of Frieburg. It could be reached on the southernmost part of the forest near France and Switzerland. Small as it may see, it has an approximate population of 200,000.

Frieburg is renowned for its Albert-Ludwigs university, gigantic cathedrals, and medieval heritage. It has a high population of students that seem to give Frieburg a bohemian character. The people of Frieburg has an abundant cultural display that includes artists, musicians, theaters, and concerts.

Frieburg was greatly affected by the war initiated by the German tyrant leader. But its people painstakingly reconstructed Frieburg, and years after, they have successfully created an array of historical buildings in Altstadt and a cathedral with a tower that offers a scenic view of Frieburg. Also, the canals were made to flow once more while the vineyards in Breisach flourished again after the massive destruction.

Frieburg also holds a fair on the month of May that lasts for more than a week. A month after, it celebrates Zeltmusikfestival, a musical festival, and Weintagen or wine festivities. Meanwhile, the wine makers in Frieburg hold Weincost or wine tasting festivity during August.
