Fribourg at a glance

Fribourg (Freiburg in German) is a bilingual city built on a loop of the Sarine river and the capital of the canton of Fribourg. French is the majority language, but a sizeable German-speaking minority lives here, and many old-town quarters have names in both languages, such as Auge/Au and Neuveville/Neustadt. The bilingual University of Fribourg brings many students to the city, a pool of potential helpers for tutoring and babysitting. Housing ranges from medieval houses in the lower town to flats in Pérolles and Schoenberg, often on steep streets and stairways – worth mentioning when you ask for moving help. Customary termination dates in the canton are 31 March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December.
