This little city was really charming. I really liked the market and the heart warming cakes. I’ve been welcomed freely by a woman thanks to “Couchsurfing” who was used to travel alone too. I was surprised by her big heart. We talked a lot that night, she gave me confidence with only few words. She prepared me food in advance and offered me a lunch for the next day (even if I was leaving this exact day). She even payed the drink… her kindness was melting my heart. I asked her why did she do all...

I felt very welcomed by the sister that hosted me, that became a friend. I loved the forest all around and that is very accessible with public transportation. I really had great time. The market around the cathedral is lovely and you can find local interesting products. There is awareness about gluten free needs in most places I have had food and I found people lovely, relaxed and friendly.

I feel pretty safe here bit a lot of my female frinds are getting comments in the night time but idk if there is a city on this word where men just leave woman alone… Criminal rate isnt high and its a pretty left sided city with lots of people willing to help in unsecure situations.
Posted: July 6, 2026At Day it is mostly safe in the whole city, especially in the city center you don't need to worry at all. At night, like everywhere, it is a bit different, but still not super dangerous (nothing has ever happed to me personally). Especially the Stühlinger Kirchplatz I would avoid at night.
Posted: July 3, 2026Freiburg is very safe! The criminal rate is not that high and as a woman, I feel pretty safe. If you are on a night out you should still be with someone else. If you don’t have anybody to go home with then call an “Frauentaxi” this is a taxi just for woman who need to go home at night.
Posted: February 2, 2026One of the safest cuties in Germany. Very friendly and welcoming . Most young people can speak other languages including English and French. In summer we have the best weather. Nature surrounds the city.
