In the southwest of the country, it spans the Dreisam, at the foot of the Schlossberg. Freiburg, a famous former German university city and archiepiscopal seat, was incorporated in the early twelfth century and developed into an important commercial, intellectual and ecclesiastical center of the Upper Rhine. The city is known for its medieval cathedral and Renaissance university, as well as its high standard of living and progressive environmental practices. The city is located in the heart of the great Baden wine region and serves as the main tourist entrance to the picturesque beauty of the Black Forest. Freiburg is rich in history. The city`s many attractions, including the historic city center, attract tourists. The large number of students living in Freiburg keeps the city young, as does the diverse nightlife and cultural attractions.
Freiburg has earned this name and reputation due to its high environmental standards, innovative research and development (also at the university) and general attitude towards the environment. More than three decades ago, the city pledged to find alternative energy sources and said “no” to nuclear power. Fribourg is actively committed to energy saving, using new technologies and renewable energy sources. It is therefore not surprising that Freiburg is home to pioneering companies and research institutes in the field of solar technology. It is a place where high-tech research and successful entrepreneurship go hand in hand.
