Thanks for the info. We're planning to visit here in 2007 with a group of 20. I'm especially interested in the silver mine and its' 800-year history!

Fine architecture tips, as always! And brilliant photos to match. (I know the Freiburg GMD, but she's trying to resign. So far they haven't let her go. Lots of strife here in the area of cultural politics!)

Ingo, thanks for your very informative Freiburg page. I missed seeing this neat town although I was just closeby in Strasbourg-time was too short unfortunately.

Great look at this center on the edge. I take it you do not consider Freiburg football victories as 'important';-] Are there many?

Excellent updates here ... it seems to be a perfect location for travelers who like museum-passes and posh restaurants ....So the question is: Did you step in the Baechle???? :o)
