DECEMBER 16 - FRIBOURG
Early morning departure from the chosen location. Free lunch along the way. Arrival in Freiburg. On the southern edge of the Black Forest, Freiburg is a university town with a sunny and welcoming atmosphere. The old town, with its cobblestone streets lined with Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings, is imbued with an almost fairy-tale air. Münsterplatz is the cobblestone square that opens in front of Freiburg im Breisgau Cathedral. It houses numerous colorful buildings, many of which were rebuilt after World War II. Time at leisure to visit the markets set up at Rathausplatz and Franziskanergasse. The quaint little wooden houses display high-quality crafts such as blown glass, silver or enameled jewelry, Christmas decorations, candles, wooden toys, straw shoes from the nearby Black Forest, and antiques. Continuation to the hotel. Dinner and overnight stay.
