Fridingen an der Donau (German pronunciation: [ˈfʁɪdɪŋən ʔan deːɐ̯ ˈdoːnaʊ], lit. 'Fridingen on the Donau'), commonly known as Fridingen ([ˈfʁiːdɪŋən] ⓘ), is a town in the district of Tuttlingen, in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is situated on the Danube, 10 km east of Tuttlingen, and 23 km west of Sigmaringen. A large hoard of Bronze Age jewellery (mostly armlets and bracelets) was discovered in the vicinity of the town in the nineteenth century. It is now part of the British Museum's prehistoric European collection.[3]
