Freiburg is the third region in southern Baden to achieve stable values below the threshold of the risk area. This enables further loosening – in addition to the already applicable opening level 1.
As the Freiburg city administration announced on Whit Sunday, May 23rd, access to the Mundenhof and the museums will be considerably easier from Whit Monday, May 24th. For the retail trade, the relief will take effect from Tuesday, May 25, and for schools after the end of the Whitsun holidays.
“In the area of the urban district of Freiburg, the 7-day incidence of 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants has fallen below since May 19, 2021, which is five consecutive days.” This will be determined by the responsible health department on Pentecost Sunday, as provided for in the Corona ordinance of the state of Baden-Württemberg.
The office takes the figures from the Robert Koch Institute as a basis, according to the largely identical published values of the State Health Office, the easing level was already reached on Saturday evening. These relaxations already apply in the districts of Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald and Emmendingen.
The regulations in detail
- Private get-togethers are permitted with ten people from a maximum of three households (children in the respective households under the age of 14 are not included).
–
- At the Mundenhof there is still a limited one
The parking contingent and the parking tickets must be booked online. In addition, there is no longer an obligation to book an appointment. The Mundenhof asks visitors to make it easier to record contact data and to avoid queues in the entrance area by already printing out and filling out the contact data recording form available on the Mundenhof’s website or by using the Luca app on site.
–
- Libraries, archives, museums (the museums are also open on Whit Monday), galleries and the Mundenhof are again allowed to open without a general limit on the number of people in relation to the area, the facilities may provide individual visitor limits. The visitors must keep their distance from other people and the obligation to enter contact data remains. In these facilities, too, there is no longer any need to show evidence of negative tests, vaccinations or recovery.
–
- Shops are generally allowed to open. Shopping is now possible again without an appointment and a fixed time window, contact details no longer have to be recorded and the area-related personal restriction has been relaxed to one customer per ten square meters of sales area. For shops that are not grocery stores and have more than 800 square meters of sales area, the restriction to one customer per 20 square meters applies above the 800 square meters. There is no test obligation for customers.
–
- In schools, the distance requirement is lifted at secondary and vocational schools; at the same time, outdoor sports are permitted in class and school classes are allowed to go on day trips again. Should the 7-day incidence again exceed 50 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants on three consecutive days, the easing must be withdrawn.

Background of the regulations
The Baden-Württemberg Corona Ordinance provides for gradual easing: after five consecutive working days with a 7-day incidence below 100, the 1st stage begins in a city or district. If the incidence remains consistently below 100 and has a downward trend, the 2nd and 3rd stages come into effect 14 days later. A downward trend can be assumed if the average incidence of the 14 days is lower than the incidence on the first day of the respective opening level. The 1st opening level has been in effect in the Freiburg urban district since May 15th. The health department publishes the current regulations at http://www.breisgau-hochschwarzwald.de
