The village Günterstal is the southernmost district of Freiburg im Breisgau. It is located in the so-called Bohrer-Tal area (where the craft of "Deichel-Bohrer", preindustrial wooden water pipes used for the distribution of water, took place) at the foot of the 1284 metre-high Schauinsland in the Günterstal district of the Black Forest. Due to this, Freiburg prides itself on being Germany's highest city. Günterstal has more than 2,000 inhabitants and is separated from Freiburg by a two-kilometre-wide meadow, the "Wonnhaldewiesen". The village was incorporated into Freiburg in 1890. The southern neighbouring municipality is Horben.
Günterstal is mentioned by name for the first time in a property deed from the year 804, at that time as "Gundherrerhusir" (Houses of Günther) in the march of Merzhausen. Around 300 years later the town reappeared under the name "Guntheristal". Around 1221, a nobleman, who according to tradition from the 18th century was called Günther of Kibenfels, gave his daughter Adelheid land in Günterstal. There she built a small monastery (monastic attachment?). In a document from 1224, the nunnery was first mentioned in "Gunterstal". However, Günther von Kibenfels cannot be the town's namesake because "Günter" appeared in the place name much earlier.
