Fribourg boasts a university, churches, a monastery complex and a
Gothic cathedral; this medieval city on the River Saane, founded by the Dukes
of Zähringen in 1157, is a cosmopolitan mini-metropolis with many aspects.
Exciting art projects - including the Sculpture Trail through Fribourg's centre, with over 40 works by well-known Swiss and international artists make a city tour pure cultural pleasure.
