Situation and region
The fresh, clean air that blows through the Wiesental valley obviously gives rise to ideas and solutions that are as crystal clear and dynamic as the spring water in the Black Forest. Indeed, the diversity of the surrounding region, with the charms of a rural idyll on the one hand and proximity to the stimulating ideas of a university town (Freiburg) and an industrial metro-
polis with international flair (Basel) on the other hand, undoubtedly plays a part. But here at HEINZMANN, you can also feel the native spirit of invention and hands-on approach so typical of the inhabitants of the Black Forest.
Top quality of life between
the Black Forest idyll and the excitement of the city
With the centres Freiburg and Basel close by and Zürich and Strasburg within a reasonable distance, the region around Schönau offers possibilities scarcely found elsewhere in Germany. And the quality of life is rated correspondingly highly. As a concrete example, from Schönau you could go skiing in the morning, go shopping in France in the afternoon and experience one of the leading symphony orchestras in Basel in the evening.
In terms of economic development, too, the region between Freiburg, Basel and Mulhouse also enjoys a peak position in Europe. And of course we should not forget the famed Baden cuisine, the sun-drenched vineyards of the Kaiserstuhl hills, the Markgräflerland region and the Black Forest, where diverse landscapes cluster in close proximity to offer boundless possibilities to families and to individualists.
