The cathedral is a survivor and apparently the little gargoyles that protect it from damp and heavy rain, also saved it from bombs in WW2. Also the construction took 3 centuries from start to finish so it'd better be tough. The tower/spire is said to be the most beautiful ever and I have no reason to doubt that. The gothic style architecture with red stone is just a right combination.

A spectacular cathedral, right in downtown and surrounded by some beautiful old buildings. The entrance is free, and the environment inside is darkish and quiet. The glass windows are beautiful, and the shafts of light coming in are amazing. The ceiling has lovely textures, so do look up. It is nice to take a moment to sit and take in the calm. It is also lovely to walk around on the outside and notice the stone carvings.

Well there are no words for the beauty of it. The open courtyard around it is one of the best maintained rock cobbled and paved place with all other building kept spaced from Munster. The carving of statues the three pillars, the Saints and companions carved on pillars inside, the color painted windows, to what not. The best was the spire and how high it was and how beautifully carved it was. This was almost a magical place to be. But if you really want pics go after sundown. Super highly recommended.

Very detailed cathedral, I can watch it for hours and find more and more things. Surrounded by the small local market with flowers, fruits, sausages (highly recommend to try one, very tasty stuff!), wooden goods, etc. Don’t forget to see the cathedral inside. It worth it, trust me. Reminds me the famous Strasbourg cathedral, but a smaller version of it. One love ❤️

The Freiburg Munster was so magical and pure. Make sure to respect others and to maintain silence inside the Munster. Perfect place to be at peace and to enjoy the architecture as well. Can light up candles for 0.70cents and buy candles to take home for 3 euros.

Lovely cathedral with amazing architecture right at the heart of Freiburg. Entry is free. We loved visiting it from the inside and walking along its perimeter to admire the different gargoyles. Must visit when in Freiburg.

Very cool cathedral in Freiburg that is rich in history. We visited quickly while attending the Christmas market outside. I would enjoy a return visit to learn more about the history of this church that is still standing after so many years.

I have visited quite a number of cathedrals in Southern Germany, and Freiburger Münster showcases the most beautiful set of stained glass windows. Absolutely breathtaking! The steeple height is surely imposing, standing high and mighty above the beautiful city of Freiburg im Breisgau.

Very Beautiful Cathedral in the town of Freiburg im Breisgau. This town is at the edge of the famous Black Forest area. There are lot of hotels to stay very close to the Freiburger Munster, in and around the square. When we stayed for a night, the square around the Munster was occupied by a wonderful Christmas market, where you could get excellent food (including vegan options), and nice artisanal items. This place is also close to the Swiss border from Basel.

On Sunday they have Holy Mass, so the visit is possible only from 13.30 to 18.00 Nice cathedral and they have information centre too. We can take a tour or pray but if you want to close the high altar and see at least 10 chapels, just pay €2/person to come. They have flyers in different languages too. Worth to visit if you like to know chapels history and bishop crypt. Around this cathedral we can find many restaurants (a bit higher price) but if you want to eat good with normal price, just go out few meters from this area; many good restaurants easy to find.

A must visit place if you are in Freiburg. It's a nice slice of history, architecture and it's right in the market place. It is a pretty big cathedral and very quiet inside that gave us the opportunity to spend some time for a quiet prayer. The columns inside and the height of the ceiling is a reminder of all the great architecture done in the times before us. The stained glass windows are a view to take in and enjoy the art work and story. The market around the cathedral offers plenty to eat, drink and shop. We tried the hot cider and would definitely recommend it. The vegan/tofu option was not fitting my taste but it was ok.

Amazing place with great views from up stairs how ever we had to climb a lot of stairs that were a bit narrow and they were getting narrower as you ascended more. There are some Bella on the top that are very old and kind of interesting.

The stained-glass windows in this church are very delicate. Several pieces could be completed by different workshops, glaziers, or artists. They differ in their styles of depicting figures and choices of color. The mixture of Gothic and Roman styles seems to be typical in this area and different from the churches in Bavaria. Some of the statues were painted with color and shows an adorable delight of awkwardness, which corresponds to the history that it was built around 13-14th century.

Great cathedral for art lovers, the last work of Hans Holbein the younger can be seen here in the Universittate chapel (2 eur entrance). Other works are great too, unfortunately i did not find the info about the painters… anyway it is worth to enjoy!

So many choices as you explore. You can go up, you can go down, either way you get to enjoy a beautiful piece of history well preserved. After all the exploring, the fountain out in the square in front of the main entrance is designed to fill your water up.

Freiburg Cathedral, since 1200s. Some interesting facts about this masterpiece. It’s actual foundation is based on a church started in 1120s, in line with that in 2020, Freiburg celebrated in 900 years Anniversary. Only Gothic church in Germany dating back to Middle Ages, which survived wars and still smiling. Out of 16 bells, the oldest dating back to 1258, oldest Angelus bell in Germany. It took 300+ years to realize this dream. The church is surrounded with market on weekdays, called as Münster market which brings local produce for sale. This tradition has been here since Freiburg wrote its name in history. So, a visit to the market is a different vibe. Can you go the church tower. Of course. 300+ steps will take you to the top of church tower base, where you can enjoy panoramic view of Blackforest and the city. Best time is Autumn during sunset. Check closing time before the visit. The church tower Entrance ( Münsterturm) is outside the church on left side. Wish you beautiful day.

This Münster offers mesmerizing views from the top. One of the famous and beautiful tower in Germany. It has a very attractive architecture and history. If you are in Freiburg, must visit this place. You can buy the tickets inside the cathedral. You can easily reach from the Hauptbahnhof by walk.

A historic and miraculously standing( after 20 mins.of non-stop bombing from the WWII) Cathedral from the City of Freiburg. The gothic old and new style are simply amazing.

Beautiful cathedral in Freiburg. A must visit place if you are in and around here. We visited this while returning back from Black Forest during Christmas. It was also well decorated.

Oh man, where do I start? I love pipe organs and this cathedral has a huge pipe organ divided into three parts. If you visit the place, they to find the three pieces, it's awesome. I'd love to see it being played but I didn't have the chance yet. Beautiful place.

The musical instruments are amazing. It takes about 200 steps to the top of the tower. 5€ for adults. Totally worth it.

Very beautiful church to visit at the city center. Parking is available nearby. Inside the church, the ambiance is very nice. One could experience the old architecture.

The Freiburg Minster is absolutely stunning. It looks somewhat similar to Straßburg Cathedral because of its reddish colour. The main tower of the Minster is, at over 100m tall, huge and very detailed. As one of the first gothic cathedrals in Germany, it is well worth a visit.

Simply amazing and incredible. Saturday market was also a great experience. Food on the square are authentic, not touristy. I had the typical Baddish dish Scheufle!

Freiburg Munster is a beautiful cathedral in the middle of town. Entrance is free and it is really worth stopping by to check out the medieval and gothic looking architecture and stain glass windows. On the day we visited, there was a local market outside selling fresh fruits and vegetables. They also had food stands and lots of local wines on offer.

This Gothic-styled church has a tower that survived the 1944 bomb raids. Beautiful on the inside and outside. Don't leave Freiburg without having visited it.

Scaffolding has been in place for 30 years, but it's still amazing!

Incredibly beautiful. It has intricate details to this mesmerising architecture.

I feel in love with the city, the cathedral is amazing and the vibes in the market around the cathedral
