This hotel is Germany’s oldest guesthouse and is located right in the Old Town of Freiburg in the beautiful area between the Schwabentor (Swabian gate) and the cathedral.
From the hotel you only have to walk a short distance to get to the heart of the action in this lively and bustling university town. Here you can get to know people, attend the colourful cathedral market or an unforgettable performance in the Freiburg concert hall.
The cathedral which took around 300 years to build is the pride and main landmark of Freiburg. The cathedral square plays host to a colourful farmer’s market every day except Sundays, and is flanked by historic buildings such as the historical marketplace or the old watchtower.
Also worth visiting in Freiburg are the old and new Town Halls, the Whale-house with its magnificent late-Gothic portal bay window, the Basler Hof or the 2 remaining Medieval gates. You can enjoy picturesque views of the Old Town around the Schwabentor (Schwabian gate) and in the island. In addition there are the discreet charms of Freiburg – arcane alleyways, hidden corners and idyllic courtyards.
Around Freiburg you can visit the majestic mountain landscapes and the wine-producing region of Baden. This provides the perfect backdrop for walking, cycling, golfing, skiing, wine-tasting and enjoying good local food.
The name of the hotel is German for the Red Bear. Not only is our hotel the oldest guesthouse in Germany (dating back to 1120), but it is among the oldest buildings in Freiburg. The long line of landlords and innkeepers can be traced directly back to the Bienger family in 1311.
