Kaiser-Joseph-Straße, Main shopping street in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany

The 900-meter long Kaiser-Joseph-Straße runs north to south through central Freiburg, featuring numerous retail stores and modern architectural elements with arcades.

Originally named Grosse Gass, the street received its current name after Emperor Joseph II visited Freiburg in 1777, marking a significant transformation period.

The street maintains traditional Freiburg elements, including the Bächle water channels that flow alongside the pedestrian paths throughout its length.

The street permits only trams and delivery vehicles, with multiple transportation connections and numerous retail establishments operating during standard business hours.

Kaiser-Joseph-Straße contains the Basler Hof, a 15th-century building that functions as the district president's official residence among commercial properties.
