Freiburg, Switzerland (Fribourg, Suisse)
Founded in 1157, Freiburg is located on the river Sarine on the Swiss plateau.
Its Old City with its medieval architecture, sits on a small rocky hill above the valley of the Sarine.
This was the hometown of our ancestor, Pierre Miville, born c.1602.
Pierre married Charlotte Mauger (Maugis) and together with their 6 children settled in Quebec, New France abt 1649.

I like how the two skylines are so similar, even though they are obviously from different time periods. Very cool!
wonder what the town is like today?
