Rent a car: Freiburg and its sights

• Freiburg Minster:
  Amongst the many historical sites in the city, Freiburg Minster is an absolute must-visit. Dating back to the beginning of the 13th century, it is one of Europe's oldest medieval cathedrals and the city's most iconic landmark. Though much of the historic centre of Freiburg was destroyed in the Second World War, the cathedral survived. Its reddish colour and remarkable turrets make a striking impression.


• Freiburg Schlossberg:
  This tree-covered hill has been the site of fortified castles since the 11th century, and today, is a great spot for enjoying outstanding views of the city and the Rhine Valley. Park your car at the foot of the hill and take a leisurely stroll through the garden which leads to the summit. Whilst in Freiburg, consider renting a car to have easy access to locations such as this, which lie outside of the city centre.


• Museums:
  Displaying a fascinating range of artefacts from the Palaeolithic era up to the Middle Ages, largely sourced from the surrounding region, the Colombischlössle Archaeological Museum is well worth a visit. Equally appealing is the Augustiner Museum, which is housed in a former monastery and contains a great collection of works dating from the Middle Ages to the 19th century.


• Food in Freiburg:
  Be sure to sample the region's culinary delights as part of your trip. Try Leberle, a delicious traditional dish consisting of smoked pork shoulder. A number of fine wines also hail from the Rhine Valley, and are bound to quench your thirst after all the exploring. Wine aficionados may even want to follow the Briesgau Wine Trail, which takes in a number of vineyards, the Black Forest, and the Vosges Mountains. Rent a car in Freiburg for the freedom to discover these regional gems at your leisure.
