Forum Fribourg – Your Congress-Center

Straddling both French and German speaking Switzerland, the Canton of Fribourg offers an undeniably strategic location. Fribourg's industry is characterised by its diversification, with the food-processing industry holding a prominent position.
 

Nearly 250'000 people live in the canton, which is divided into seven districts and 200 parishes. The surface area measures 1'671 square kilometres, which means that there are 152 inhabitants per square kilometre.
