Gateway to the Black Forest

By Linda Tancs

A gateway to the Black Forest, Breisach is a small German town on the Rhine River. Dominating the skyline is St. Stephen Cathedral, built in the 12th to the 15th centuries in Romanesque and Gothic styles. The church is particularly known for its mural, The Last Judgment, by Martin Schongauer. The Black Forest is an easy excursion away by bus.
