On several occasions, Red Baron had reported on Freiburg's bratwurst scene on Freiburg's Münsterplatz. In 2010 wurst lovers had to bear a
wurst war that ended in 2012 with the
opening of a veggie wurst stand.
Now I must tell you that last year the bratwurst scene suffered considerably, so three stands of eight are presently missing. Well, the veggie dog vendors simply pause during the winter, but in October, butcher Dirr was stricken by an explosion because of a leaking gas bottle that injured one saleswoman severely and destroyed his stand.

Following the sudden death of Freiburg's original among the wurst sellers, Paul Karle-Hämmerle, end of November, his immediate family announced to discontinue
Paul's Imbiss* on Münsterplatz.

This apparently gave Dirr the idea to throw his towel too. The investment into a new stand seemed too big.
Since a new public tender procedure for all vendors is due this year, we may soon see new faces selling wurst on Münsterplatz. Will there eventually be price competition? I doubt it.
