About this site

Fribourg is a land of values.

While its creativity and ambition open up new horizons, its values act as anchors. They hold together a dynamic, creative canton that always keeps its feet on the ground. 

Open to new technologies, mindful of sustainable development and proud of its heritage, Fribourg builds bridges between tradition and modernity, supported by a unique balance of cultures, languages and expertise. From food to business, by way of culture, sport and tourism, “Fribourg, Land of Values” reflects a rich, vibrant and deeply human identity. 

The territorial brand “Fribourg, Land of Values” embodies this identity and brings together everyone who keeps the canton alive day after day. It rests on strong values: human closeness, conviviality, pride combined with humility, authenticity, diversity, reliability and quality, and ambition and innovation. These values form a shared language, inspire initiatives and strengthen the sense of belonging to a region where trust, openness and the desire to move forward together give these values their full meaning.

The Fribourgissima association launched the canton of Fribourg’s territorial brand in 2022. The brand underlines the commitment to uniting the strengths of Fribourg’s many stakeholders under one banner. 

Fribourg is a land of values. Where its creativity and ambition open up horizons, its values function as anchors. They are the guarantors of the unity of an ambitious and creative canton, but always keeping its feet on the ground.

From gastronomy to economy, tourism, culture and sport, the slogan “Fribourg, Land of values” encompasses all its facets. Visually, it is embodied in the I and B of the name “Fribourg”: the hyphen recalls the bridge between the French- and German-speaking cultures, the balance and the land; the heart reflects belonging, pleasure and common values.

Launched by the Fribourgissima association, the new territorial brand of the canton of Fribourg reiterates the desire to unite the strengths of its 14 partners under a single banner. The communication campaign linked to this new brand aims to highlight the specificities of the canton, in order to promote its image at national and international level.

The “Fribourg” brand is used in all communications and tourism campaigns carried out by the Fribourg Tourist Board (Union fribourgeoise du Tourisme). Terroir Fribourg also uses the new visual for its “Fribourg – regio.garantie” label. Other partners, such as the Development Agency (FDA), use the “Fribourg” brand in their various communications.
