One of the two surviving medieval city gates, Schwabentor stands at the southern edge of Freiburg’s Altstadt. Built in the 13th century, it once guarded the city and features an impressive mural depicting a Swabian trader. Today, travelers can climb its tower for sweeping views or explore the small museum inside, dedicated to local legends and cultural history. Nearby cobblestone alleys lead to delightful cafes, shops, and the lively Augustinerplatz, where you can immerse yourself in the city’s vibrant atmosphere. At night, Schwabentor’s illuminated silhouette adds a magical touch to Freiburg’s skyline, making it a must-see landmark.
