Fribourg is both a city and a Swiss province located near the regions Bern and Wallis. Two languages are spoken here: French and German. As a city Fribourg is a popular congress town but is also famous for its many recreational facilities. Because the city was built on rocks and water, it is a special heritage from the Middle ages and is considered as one of the prettiest architectural wonders of Europe. The nicest medieval cityscapes can be found in Fribourg and its many churches, fountains, monuments and city houses create an authentic vibe.
