village well) was donated by the city of Freiburg in 1892 as a reminder of the annexation of Haslach. The well has three sides because at that point three roads from Freiburg, St. Georgen and Opfingen met. On the well column there is the crest of Haslach as well as an eagle. Below the basin there are three inscriptions: “Vereinigung Haslach mit Freiburg 1890” (Annexation of Haslach to Freiburg 1890) “Errichtung des Brunnens 1892” (Construction of the Well 1892) “Zuführung der Wasserleitung 1894” (Construction of the water supply line 1894) The cobbled area around the well was originally in the shape of a triangle, but was rounded to the side of Gutleutstraße in 1908 due to the increasing traffic. In 1969 the well was moved to its present position at the crossing of Carl-Kistner-Straße and Uffhauserstraße because it stood in the way of the broadening of Carl-Kistner-Straße and Markgrafenstraße. Public Facilities The main building of the Freiburg Fire Department (Feuerwehr Freiburg im Breisgau) is located at the Eschholzstraße in Haslach. It does not only house the professional fire brigade but also the volunteers, the office for fire and catastrophe protection, as well as the integrated control station. From the 17 departments of volunteers, the division Unterstadt (Haslach, Unterwiehre, Vauban and Merzhausen) is responsible for the biggest part of the city. Haslach also has Freiburg’s only comprehensive school (Gesamtschule), that is named after Nobel prize winner Hermann Staudinger. The building was built in 1970 and is planned to make space for a more modern building until 2025. South of the school there has been the Haslach indoor garden pool since 1976. In Haslach-Schildacker an initial reception center for asylum applicants has been located since 2016 where the academy for the police of Baden-Württemberg used to be.
