About Freiberg
Known as Germany's Silver City, Freiberg’s wealth and splendor is based on its past as a mining area for silver and other precious metals. While mining is no longer the main livelihood of the locals, visitors are still encouraged to follow the silver trail to discover the hidden gems of the city. Freiburg is also one of the most significant cities in the famed Black Forest, with the mountainous backdrop and babbling brooks worthy of a Brothers Grimm fairy tale.
Start your journey at the Silver Mine to see the centuries-old mineshaft also known as the Old Elisabeth. If you want to discover more about the city's rich silver mining history, be sure to drop by the City and Mining Museum, as well.
Another magnificent landmark that you shouldn't miss is the Cathedral of St. Mary. This medieval building erected in 1180 is home to the famed Silbermann Organs and the cathedral's tolling bells. The other attractions inside the church are The Golden Gate and Funerary Chapel. If you want to enjoy live entertainment and classical music, check out the shows at Freiberger Sommernächte or Konzert-und Ballhaus Tivoli. For a true Freiberg gastronomical experience, try Ratskeller, Goldenes Prag, or Kartoffelhaus.
Basel-Mulhouse Airport is the nearest airport to Freiberg, but to reach the city from the airport (or from many other German cities), you'll want to hop on a bus like FlixBus. Freiberg is also easily accessible by train, thanks to Deutsche Bahn and Railjet routes.
