Information on Freiburg, Germany
 

I will be traveling to Freiburg Germany in March of 2001. I would appreciate any information on travel, accommodations, shopping and restaurants. <BR>Thank you. <BR>Pat from Michigan

Hi Pat <BR> <BR>We love Frieburg and hope to do a house exchange there in the spring of 2002. Do a search and you'll find information on this board. We stayed at the Allee Haus (allee means tree-lined street in German), which is within walking distance of the center. Be sure to have a wurst at the market which is held around the cathedral every day. Freiburg is a small, sophisticated university city at the base of the Black Forest. <BR> <BR>Enjoy!

Pat <BR> <BR>Here's info on the Hotel Allehaus. The address is Marienstrasse 7. It has a great buffet breakfast in a pleasant dining room, and you can park in their garage behind the hotel. The rate for two was about $80.Their fax is 0761/387 6099.

Freiburg is not that small... but I wished I had spend more then just 1 day in this beautiful city. It's one of those places with a character. Old Square is do not miss. Parking was a little problem - although it seems to be all over the place. Old part of the city is great for walking. Enjoy.

Betsy: <BR>Thank you for the information on Freiburg. My niece is studying at the Arthur Ludwig University this year from the University of Michigan. I will be traveling with my niece's parents. Do you remember a hotel near the university that we might look into? You mentioned the Allee Haus is that located near the university? <BR>Thanks again. <BR>Pat

Pat <BR> <BR>We were only in Freiburg for three nights, so I didn't get to know the city outside the center. I just dragged out my huge Freiburg map but couldn't find Arthur Ludwig University. I think there may be more than one university in Freiburg. <BR> <BR>You might go to www.google.com and do a search for Freiburg, Germany. There may even be a link there to the university. If you need more help with this, just let me know. <BR> <BR>How long will you get to stay there? <BR> <BR>

There are several decent websites on Freiburg. The only one I can remember off the top of my head is www.freiburg.de There is an English version.

Another great link is this: <BR>http://www.freiburg-online.com/freib.../frameset.html
