Aussichtsturm Schlossberg

The Schlossberg (German for 'Castle Hill') is a tree-covered hill of 456 metres (1,496 ft) located in the area of the city of Freiburg im Breisgau. It is directly to the east of Freiburg's Old Town and is part of the Black Forest. The main geological fault is at the western edge of the Schlossberg, towards the Upper Rhine Graben.

The Bismarck tower in Freiburg im Breisgau belongs to a series of towers that were built in honor of Otto von Bismarck, the first German chancellor. It is located on the Schlossberg. It is 12.6 m (41 ft) tall and has a square base (5.8x5.8 m or 19x19 ft). The top of the tower can only be reached by climbing a ladder. Because of this it can not be used as an observation deck.

Freiburg Castle is a vanished castle. When it existed it was usually called the Burghaldenschloss (motte-and-bailey castle).

Ganter is a private brewery based in Freiburg, Germany. It was founded in 1865 by Louis Ganter, and as of 2016 is run by Katharina Ganter-Fraschetti and Detlef Frankenberger. The brewery was founded in a three-story renaissance building which had previously belonged to Erasmus of Rotterdam, and in 1854 had become the Ringwald Brewery. Ten years later, the brewery moved to its current site on the outskirts of the town. The company fared badly throughout the start of the twentieth century, due to its position at the very centre of the crises of the First and Second World Wars. The historical building in the city centre was destroyed during Operation Tigerfish on 27 November 1944, followed by further bombings of brewery facilities on 2 and 3 December 1944.A successful reconstruction in the second half of the century led to the takeover of the Löwenbrauerei of Freiburg in 1979, and a partnership with the Inselbrauerei Feierling. The brewery now produces a 4.9% vol. Ganter pilsner, a "Freiburger" pilsner, a 5.2% special export beer, a light and dark 5.4% wheat beers and an alcohol-free beer. Also produced a strong Bock beer, Wodan. At 7.5% vol., this was first brewed in 1898 as a nourishing brew for long hungry winters. Alcohol-free drinks are now produced by the associated OGA (Oberrheinische Industrie- und Handelsgesellschaft, Ganter'sche Aktiengesellschaft), which was established in 1922 to make liqueur. A particularly successful orange-lemonade drink allowed the expansion into other fruit juices and lemonades. The grounds of the brewery played host to a concert by Diana Ross in 2005 (as part of the firm's 140th anniversary celebrations), and in 2006 the inner courtyard was used by Simply Red and Dieter Thomas Kuhn.

The Schlossbergbahn (English: Castle Hill Railway) is a funicular railway in the town of Freiburg im Breisgau in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It links the city centre with the Schlossberg hill. The funicular was constructed in 2008, in order to replace a previous cable car that was used between 1968 and 2006. It is operated by the Schlossbergbahn GmbH & Co. KG. The line operates daily between 09:00 and 22:00 (18:00 on Tuesdays), and is accessible to wheelchairs.The funicular has the following technical parameters:

The Stadtgarten (City Garden) of Freiburg is a 2.6 ha park within the Neuburg district. It has an old tree grove and a large rose garden, and lies between the Leopoldring, Jackob Burckhardt, Ludwig and Mozart streets near Freiburg's city centre. It is connected to Karlsplatz via the Karlssteg footbridge, which is made from pre-stressed concrete. Since 2008 the Schlossberg Tram, an inclined elevator, leads up to Schlossberg. It replaced the Schlossberg Cable Car built in 1968. The music pavilion in the park is used during summer for concerts and as a free-lance stage. The Theatresports open-air-festival has taken place in the Stadtgarten pavilion since 1997. In addition to perennial and interspersed pines, the garden includes a children's playground as well as two ponds and wells. The Stadtgarten also held the Schlossbergfest, which was held once a year during the summer, with several thousand candles burning in the city garden and on the Schlossberg. It took place for the last time in 2011.

The Karlssteg is a 136.5 meter long footbridge of tension construction in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. A concrete strip only 25 cm thick with 60 continuous tension elements leads from Karlsplatz to the Stadtgarten. In high temperatures, the tension band can sag up to 40 cm. Construction of the bridge began in 1969; in January 1970, the columns were already standing, and in June, for the city's 850th anniversary, the Karlssteg Bridge – constructed by the engineer H.Nehse – was opened to traffic as the first bridge of its kind in Germany. In the same year, the Mozart, Hermann and Schwabentor bridges were opened, though in a less spectacular way, passing over Mozartstraße (Mozart Street) and Schlossbergring. At the opening, a four-tonne construction vehicle stood alongside Lord Mayor Eugen Keidel on top of the 664.000 Deutsche Marks (approximately 300,000 British pounds) to demonstrate the load-bearing capacity. The artificial resin coating on the bridge causes problems due to its loosening from the concrete, and has had to be renovated several times over the last few years. Also, the flooring does not tolerate the scattering of road salt. Therefore, in the event of snow and ice, barriers with warning signs are put in place to prevent pedestrians from crossing the bridge. Initially, the installation of a heating system was discussed but proved too costly to be put in place. The bridge was involved in a copyright dispute in 2006. In 1990, the photographer Karl Heinz Raach photographed the Freiburg Minster with the Karlssteg Bridge in the foreground. The photo became a postcard and was released in a Freiburg picture book. From the same position, the photo was imitated for a calendar of the Volksbank (lit. People's bank) of Freiburg and taken by a different professional photographer in 2003. In turn, Raach complained about such imitation, and was proven right in the second instance.

The old cemetery (German: Alter Friedhof) in Neuburg, a district of Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany, covers an area of 2.65 hectares. Situated on park-like grounds, the old cemetery is one of Germany's oldest cemeteries that have been abandoned and preserved as a whole. Located close to the Ludwigskirche, it is often mistaken to be part of the neighboring district Herdern. Providing tombs to an estimate of 1200 people, half of them are worthy of preservation. The booster club takes care of maintenance. The old cemetery falls under preservation order of cultural and natural monument. Moreover, it can be seen as evidence for death cult, town history and stylistic area of the 17th and 18th century. Serving not only as a place for individual and artistic tombstones of middle class people. Furthermore, the old cemetery grants an insight into the consciousness of faith during the baroque period until the time of neo-classicism.

The Zinnfigurenklause is a private museum in Freiburg im Breisgau that depicts the history of the Schwabentor in south-eastern Germany.

The Schwabentor (English Swabian Gate), also called Obertor in the Middle Ages, is the more recent of the two remaining city gates of the medieval defensive wall of Freiburg im Breisgau in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. In 2022, it was suggested to become world heritage.

Zum roten Bären (translation: The Red Bear) is a hotel and restaurant in Freiburg, Germany; it has a claim to be the oldest hotel in Germany and Europe. The foundations of the hotel predate the founding of the town of Freiburg by the dukes of the House of Zähringen in 1120. Records show that site of Zum roten Bären was already used as an inn in the 12th century. The first landlord for whom there is written documentation is Hanmann Bienger, whose name was listed in a land register of the nearby monastery of Adelhausen in March 1387. Many of the landlords were also court officials and councilmen of the city of Freiburg and often also guild masters. For some time, the guild hall of the shoemakers was located at Zum Roten Bären, as can be seen in one of the windows of Freiburg Cathedral. After French soldiers damaged an older building during the Rhine campaign of 1713, the building visible today was built by landlord Andreas Pflug in the Baroque style and completed in 1718. Parts of the external walls and cellars remain from the original 12th-century building.Current managers Christoph Glück and Christian Böhler—who bought the hotel in 2017—are the 51st landlords.
