3 Coworking Spaces in Fribourg

About Fribourg

So long as you have a smattering of French or German in your vocabulary, you will be fine to get around Fribourg without the use of too much hand language or facial contortions happening. The capital of the region of the same name sitting in the western part of Switzerland, Fribourg is a fantastic medieval city perched upon a dramatic gorge that has been carved out by the Sarine River. This gorge actually divides the city into 2 halves: French speaking residents, the old town, the train station and the university sit on the west bank, whilst the other half of the city speak German. Coworking spaces are springing up on both sides; so don't stress out too much about the language dramas.

Fribourg is on the Swiss Plateau and is the major economic, administrative and educational center on the cultural border between German and French Switzerland. The city is quite small and really easy to get around. It has a healthy dose of liveliness and quite a hedonistic nightlife, courtesy of its' student population. Fribourg can boast that it has one of the best-maintained old cities in Switzerland, plus a lot of great museums for the history buffs to explore. It is an amazing looking town, as it appears to morph up and out of the gorge below.

When you have finished rumbling around Gothic cathedrals and Renaissance palaces, you can meander into a coworking space and actually get some work done whilst hanging out with the locals in collaborative bliss.
