Hertz in Freiburg
The picturesque, university city of Freiburg is one of Germany's hidden secrets. Sitting in the southwest, in the Baden-Württemberg state, it is one of the country's suntraps, most famous wine regions, and provides a gateway to the vast Black Forest. While its history dates back to 1120, and offers a tremendous array of landmarks and monuments still today. We have two branches around the city, so whether you are staying outside of the city, or are looking to explore the Forest and surrounding areas, renting a car in Freiburg couldn't be easier.
Freiburg's cobbled streets offer a great array of spots for sightseeing, local cuisine and shopping. Explore the Munsterplatz, the city's main market square, and visit the 11th century gothic cathedral, the Freiburger Münster that looms large over the stalls. Stop for a coffee in the Rathausplatz, and visit the square's Martinskirche, as well as both the Neues and Altes Rathaus. After taking in the sights of the city, rent a car and drive to Günterstal to take Germany's longest cable car up the nearby mountain of Schauinsland, resplendent with its stunning views. Experience some of the Black Forest's 3,733 square miles of beauty, while with a car, Basel in Switzerland to the south, and Strasbourg to the north in France are both just an hour away.
