Sights
The attractive city of Freiburg is located in the beautiful Region Breisgau, whose vine products have a very good reputation. The 500 years old Freiburger cathedral marks the medieval city center where the farmers offer their fresh products on a daily market just like they've done it for generations.
In Todtnau-Aftersteg, close to the famous waterfalls, the Glasbläserhof is located in a 200 years old building designed in the traditional black forest style. Here you can observe the antique handcraft of glasblowing as it is done for over 2000 years.
Go for a boat trip on the idyllic Titisee in the heart of the Black Forest and get the famous cuckoo watch as a souvenir for your friends at home.
The small and narrow lanes in the pictorial town Staufen at the foot of the Black Forest offer nice views on the ruin of the castle Staufen.
In Badenweiler you enjoy the spa pools and the hot springs in the famous health resort.
Culture & Delight
Landscape, people, and traditions - they belong together. It's all natural: the water, the air, the food and the hospitality. We try to beware the Black Forest as it is. Do you like to know how baking the world famous Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (Black Forest Cherry Cake)
Focus on the arts
Lörrach has developed into a lively, outward looking and attractive cultural hub in the Upper Rhine region where Germany, France and Switzerland meet. The cultural variety on offer in the town reflects not only the efforts of the municipality but also the contribution of numerous clubs and societies.
The activities of clubs and societies are a key factor in the cultural life of Lörrach.
At Fasnacht - or carnival time - the town's traditional carnival societies make their own distinctive contribution.
The Cathedral
The history of Basel as an urban settlement begins on the Cathedral Hill. In the first century BC, Celts from the tribe of the Rauricii lived there in a fortified "oppidum". In the Rittergasse, remains of the "Celtic Wall" can be seen in windows let into the ground.
Ferries
A total of four ferries cross the Rhine between Basel's various bridges. A public transport facility, they travel across the river without a motor, propelled only by the force of the current. A ferry ride is an opportunity for quiet, meditative enjoyment not only for tourists but also for local people.
