Fribourg

Fribourg is the capital of the region of the same name in western Switzerland. In the medieval old city above the Sarine River, the Gothic Fribourg Cathedral has art nouveau stained glass and views from its bell tower. The nearby Espace Jean Tinguely–Niki de Saint Phalle displays the namesake 20th-century artists' sculpture. Occupying a Renaissance palace, the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire showcases medieval art.
