Discover the city of Fribourg

To spend a day of discovery in the city of Fribourg, leave from Givisiez in the direction of Fribourg-Poya. Go down to the St-Nicolas cathedral and park your bike to visit the old town on foot through the Grand Rue, the Ruelle des Epouses and the  Petit-Saint-Jean Square.

The old town of Fribourg is full of treasures with its historical bridges, the Sarine, the ramparts and the fountains. Take the opportunity to go back to the city center with the Funicular.

We recommend combining this itinerary with the immersive tour “Frÿburg 1606” which combines audio and augmented reality to transport you into the history of the city of Fribourg in the 17th century. Visioguide available at the tourist office and downloadable on smartphone.
