In the centre of the northern Black Forest lies the beautiful town of Freudenstadt. A holiday in Freudenstadt in the Black Forest offers relaxation under healing climatic conditions.
Freudenstadt in the Black Forest was founded by Duke Friedrich I in the early 17th century. The town is a planned town and a square market place with surrounding streets was created. The ground plan resembles a mill. Unfortunately, numerous bombing raids destroyed large areas of the town. Today’s townscape is a reconstruction based on the historical townscape.
Holidays in Freudenstadt in the Black Forest – Excursion tips
A trip to the Black Forest and clichés like cuckoo clocks and Black Forest cake immediately come to mind. I really wanted to take a closer look at one of the clichés during our stay in Freudenstadt. What luck that the Black Forest Cake Seminar exists!
During our first stay in the Black Forest, we were drawn to Freudenstadt. Still completely unknown to us, Freudenstadt has been a traditional holiday resort for many years and is also known as a recognised climatic health resort and spa. We were excited to see what we would discover and experience here.
On our programme during the blogger trip to the Black Forest is a visit to the Hotel Waldlust. At first I was a bit irritated - why should I visit a hotel where we are not staying? So I did a little surfing on the internet and it was clear why this place was on…
I have never been in a real silver and copper ore mine. In the Black Forest there is the Freudenstadt visitor mine, which we were allowed to visit.
Welcome to the Black Forest, welcome to the Hotel Adler - what a nice and warm welcome that awaited us when we arrived in Freudenstadt.
