Sobrio edificio que alberga el Museo de Historia de la Ciudad, que pasa un poco desapercibido por la presencia de la catedral. No pudimos verlo por dentro por falta de tiempo.

Das Stadtmuseum befindet sich zentral in Freiburg und ist ein Gebäude, was den 2 Weltkrieg ohne Zerstörung überstanden n hat. Hier kann man sich auf kleinem Raum einen Überblick über die Stadtgeschichte verschaffen. Daher einfach mal vorbei schauen.
