Parken/en
The large parking area outside the dorm belongs to the University of Freiburg, and they require you to purchase a parking permit in order to use it. If you do not have such a permit, parking is prohibited, and someone comes and checks the permits almost every day. If you do not have one, you will be finded approx 7.50 €, even if you are just unloading some stuff and only want to park very briefly.
The dorm has parking spaces of its own (behind the dustbin shed), which are free at the moment, so use these and not the university parking spaces to avoid the fines!
