Lehen offers two distinct local highlights: Türmle Viewpoint on Lehener Bergle and the family-oriented Lehen indoor swimming pool. The viewpoint is above Lehen and offers views across Freiburg. When visiting, include parking in Lehen and a walk uphill in your plans; the indoor swimming pool brings together facilities in the water and outdoors. When choosing a holiday apartment in Lehen, you can also consider which local attractions you would like to shape your stay.
Türmle Viewpoint
Lehener Bergle lies in the Mooswald Landscape Conservation Area and provides the setting for Türmle Viewpoint. Access to Türmle is restricted to agricultural vehicles. From Türmle, the view stretches across Freiburg. The landscape and viewpoint give your visit a clear destination, but the access road is not intended for ordinary car traffic.
Plan to park in Lehen and then continue on foot uphill. Access to Türmle is restricted to agricultural vehicles, and there are only a few parking spaces directly at the site. These conditions are important for finding your way around: parking options in Lehen and the subsequent uphill walk go together if you want to visit the viewpoint.
Lehen Indoor Swimming Pool
Lehen Indoor Swimming Pool offers a family-oriented swimming experience. Facilities include a sports pool (16.7 m), a snake slide (6.5 m) and water play equipment. The outdoor area includes a sunbathing lawn, a sand and mud playground, a bird’s nest swing, barbecue areas and table tennis. So, in addition to swimming, the program includes outdoor play and recreation areas.
The local highlights have different conditions to consider: at Türmle, bear in mind the walk uphill and restricted access; at the indoor swimming pool, opening hours and the program are important. As opening hours and the program may change, check the latest information before your visit.
Freiburg im Breisgau: Culture and Urban Spaces
The wider destination of Freiburg im Breisgau offers everything from architecture and urban history to leisure activities. The west tower of Freiburg Minster is 116 metres high. The Hosanna bell in the Minster is 750 years old, weighs three tonnes and is one of the oldest Angelus bells in Germany.
Freiburg’s Bächle are water channels that flow through numerous lanes in Freiburg’s Old Town. Freiburg’s Upper Old Town, with the Gewerbekanal, Gerberau, Fischerau and Insel, invites you to stroll over cobblestones. These two features of the city offer different perspectives: the Bächle shape the lanes with their flowing water, while the named areas of the Upper Old Town invite visitors to explore on foot.
The Augustinermuseum houses an extensive collection of art and cultural history spanning the Middle Ages to the Baroque period. For a different kind of experience, Seepark Freiburg offers a bathing lake, restaurants, a swimming pool, playgrounds and a mini-golf course. Visitors can explore the lake by pedal boat; the weather and operating conditions may affect availability. Check the latest operating details before your visit.
Along various themed trails on Schlossberg, information boards and 3D display cases provide details about individual moments in its history. As trail conditions may change, it is advisable to check them before visiting. These cultural, urban and leisure attractions are part of the wider destination of Freiburg im Breisgau and offer distinct topics beyond finding your way around Lehen.
