Breisach Cathedral
The Breisach Cathedral towers high above the Rhine and offers not only a fascinating view over the tri-border region of Germany–France–Switzerland, but also an impressive destination for all those traveling through Markgräflerland on a convertible tour. The region around Breisach belongs to the "Badische Weinstraße with the Cabriolet" and wonderfully combines cultural experiences, driving pleasure, and wine enjoyment.
Panoramic convertible routes through the vineyards of the Kaiserstuhl
The approach to the Breisach Cathedral is a delight for every convertible journey. The route takes you through the charming vineyard region of the Kaiserstuhl along small country roads – past vineyards, fruit orchards, and winegrower villages. Particularly, the stretch from Ihringen via Achkarren to Breisach impresses with its winding course and the wide views up to the Vosges on the French side.
As a convertible route, this passage is ideal: little traffic, varied landscapes, and numerous opportunities for short stops – whether for photography, tasting, or simply enjoying the surroundings.
Culture meets wine culture
The Breisach Cathedral of St. Stephen is the cultural center of the city and a true landmark on the Upper Rhine. The Gothic church impresses with its powerful location on the Münsterberg and its intricate windows, which are among the most significant stained glass works of the late Gothic period.
After the visit, the streets of the old town of Breisach invite for a stroll, and numerous wine taverns and cellars entice with regional specialties and fine wines from the area. Whether it's Badischer Gutedel or Kaiserstühler Spätburgunder – here you will find the perfect companion for every taste.
