Konstanz (or Constance in English) is like a <strong>Mediterranean town<\/strong> in the middle of Lake Constance &#8211; also known as Bodensee in German. If it weren\u2019t so far away, we would definitely visit this place more often. While we have travelled extensively and visited many places in <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/travelblog\/germany\/\">Germany<\/a>, never have we found ourselves so far south as Konstanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was actually because of Kathi&#8217;s brother, that we got to see <strong>the largest city on Lake Constance<\/strong>. He had recently moved to the beautiful town of Konstanz, which had been his base for a few months by then and guided us through his new home. In this blog article, we will share with you <strong>the most beautiful sights in Konstanz<\/strong> and of course our best travel tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Konstanz: What to Expect from the Town on Lake Constance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Konstanz is a combination of many things that make a city worth living for us &#8211; and of course, worth visiting. The first reason being the most special: Konstanz is blessed with a very <strong>unique location<\/strong>, right by the shores of Lake Constance. This means afternoon coffee with a view of the sparkling water, cooling off in the lake or a sunset cruise &#8211; yes, yes and yes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly: Konstanz has a <strong>beautiful historic Old Town<\/strong>, but surprisingly, it doesn\u2019t feel old and boring &#8211; quite the contrary, in fact. Being a <strong>University town<\/strong>, the University of Konstanz is actually the city\u2019s largest employer. Its young, upbeat vibe is a tribute to the large number of students in Konstanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And thirdly: Konstanz is <strong>pleasantly tranquil<\/strong>. You can get almost anywhere just by foot. In the high season, you can expect lots of tourists bustling around in the Old Town, but all in all, we had a very pleasant experience in Konstanz.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fun Fact: the locals here call their city \u201cKonschdanz\u201d &#8211; just in case you were wondering. After the 10th time, we still couldn\u2019t get used to it\u2026 so don\u2019t say we didn\u2019t warn you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21020\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21020\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21020 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Reisetipps.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Constance Travel Tips\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21265\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21265\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21265 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-1.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Constance Travel Blog\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" id=\"21252\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-21252 size-large is--landscape aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Blog-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Konstanz Blog Tipps\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Best Things to Do and See in Konstanz<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Konstanz is pretty easy to get around and you can reach most of the main sights in the centre <strong>by foot<\/strong>. You can easily explore the most important parts of the city in just one day. For destinations that are further away (like Meersburg), then a <strong>boat trip<\/strong> could be a nice, refreshing alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Old Town and Niederburg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We started our city tour in the beautiful Old Town of Konstanz. Here, you\u2019ll find some of the town\u2019s <strong>most important sights<\/strong>, including the towering cathedral of Konstanzer M\u00fcnster &#8211; which we will tell you more about soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Old Town of Konstanz is a very lovely, photogenic mix of narrow streets, spacious town squares and traditional historic houses &#8211; actually, make that lots of traditional historic houses. Konstanz is fortunate in that it escaped with very little damage from the previous wars, which is why the Old Town is so well preserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The oldest part of the Old Town is called <strong>Niederburg<\/strong> and begins north of the M\u00fcnster. In this <strong>medieval part of Konstanz<\/strong>, there\u2019s a good chance that you\u2019ll get lost, as the streets are even narrower and more maze-like than the rest of Konstanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve made your way through the Niederburg, then you\u2019ll come out north of the Rhine, more precisely known as Seerhein. Located here is also the Rheintorturm &#8211; or the Gate Tower of the Rhine &#8211; one of the three preserved Medieval Defence Towers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our tip: There is a really nice spot on the other side of the Rhine bridge, along the street called Seestra\u00dfe. Here, you can enjoy a <strong>pretty view of Konstanz<\/strong> in peace.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21262\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21262\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21262 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Bodensee-1.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Lake Constance\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21014\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21014\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21014 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Altstadt-Tipps.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Constance Old Town\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" id=\"21257\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-21257 size-large is--landscape aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Tipps-1-1.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Konstanz Tipps\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">View from the Konstanzer M\u00fcnster &#8211; Cathedral of Konstanz<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The gigantic Cathedral of Konstanz easily surmounts all other buildings in the Old Town. Even if you don\u2019t have much to do with sacred or religious buildings, this is a cathedral that deserves a visit. High above, from the tower of the cathedral is <strong>the best view over the Old Town<\/strong> of Konstanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The climb is less arduous than expected. You only have about 200 steps to overcome before you reach the open air <strong>observation deck<\/strong>. Hot Tip: There is a platform on both sides of the church tower and the view is fantastic from both. Thankfully, you can also photograph through the wire meshing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want, you can also climb another 52 steps from here inside the church tower. Unfortunately, there\u2019s no deck for you to go outside, which is why the additional effort is only partially worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once back down, we definitely recommend that you also <strong>take a look inside the cathedral<\/strong>. We were impressed by the cloister: Parts of it date back to the 13th and 15th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information about the Cathedral Tower ascent<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Price:<\/em> 2 Euros<br><em>Opening hours:<\/em> 10 am to 5 pm (on weekdays), 12:30 am to 5:30 pm (Sundays and public holidays)<br><em>Address:<\/em> M\u00fcnsterplatz 1, 78462 Konstanz<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" id=\"21267\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-21267 size-large is--landscape aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Ausblick-M\u00fcnster-Konstanz-2.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Ausblick M\u00fcnster Konstanz\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21270\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21270\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21270 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Ausblick-Tipps-1.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Cathedral Constance View\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"20915\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"20915\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-20915 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-M\u00fcnster.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Cathedral of Constance\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Harbour and Imperia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Down by the harbour of Konstanz towers <strong>the city landmark<\/strong> &#8211; the Imperia. The concrete statue rotates around its axis once every four minutes &#8211; all day, every day. The Imperia is a satirical reference to the Council of Constance: If you look close enough, then you will notice that a naked figure is held in each hand of the Imperia &#8211; symbolising the Pope and Emperor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of the Council: Directly opposite the Imperia is the <strong>Council building<\/strong>, which dates back to the 14th century. Just north of the council building is the city garden and from the park benches along the shore, you have a great view of the house-fronts from across the opposing street of Seestra\u00dfe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"20957\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"20957\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-20957 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hafen-Konstanz.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Constance Harbour\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"20959\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"20959\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-20959 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Imperia-Konstanz.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Constance Imperia\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" id=\"20964\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-20964 size-large is--landscape aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Konstanz-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Konstanz Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten Tipps\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boat trip to Meersburg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One of our personal highlights!<\/strong> Meersburg is a picturesque small town on the opposing shore of Lake Constance. Although the place is almost exclusively overrun by tourists during the day, we think that Meersburg is definitely worth seeing if you\u2019re in the Constance region.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By boat, you can reach Meersburg from Konstanz in about half an hour. From the water, you can already catch a glimpse of what makes Meersburg so special &#8211; a small town located on a hilly slope, surrounded by vineyards. It goes without saying that there are quite a few places in Meersburg, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of Lake Constance. One of them is the garden of the New Castle. From here you can see the <strong>Meersburg Castle<\/strong>, as well as the Unterstadt (Lower Town).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our tip:<\/strong> We ourselves visited Meersburg in the late afternoon and took the last ferry back to Konstanz in the late evening. It was amazing to see and enjoy the <strong>sunset<\/strong> from the ferry &#8211; something we can highly recommend! But pay careful attention to the departure times of the ferry trips because they run less frequently in the afternoon. You can find and search for the ferry schedules and connections here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bsb.de\/en\/timetable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lake Konstanz &#8211; Ferry Schedule<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important note: In addition to the regular passenger boat services across Lake Constance, they also run one Vehicle Ferry every 15 minutes to Meersburg. However, this particular ferry departs a little north from the city of Konstanz &#8211; to be precise, a few kilometres north of the Old Town in the district of Staad. The ferry ride is a bit cheaper, but of course less comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information about the boat trip to Meersburg<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Price:<\/em> 12,80 Euros

For example, you can visit the botanical garden or have a coffee break in a Baroque Castle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We actually ended up not visiting this island for a few reasons: the absurdly high entrance fee of 21.50 Euros definitely put us off, as well as the fact we were visiting in peak season, plus we had heard very mixed reviews about the place &#8211; from &#8220;absolute highlight&#8221; to \u201coverhyped and crowded&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information about visiting the island of Mainau<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Admission:<\/em> 22 Euros (summer), 10,50 Euros (winter)<br><em>Getting there:<\/em> by boat from the Konstanz harbour or alternatively by bike<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"center\" id=\"21254\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-21254 size-large is--landscape aligncenter\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Schiff-Konstanz-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Schiff Konstanz Tipps\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Restaurants and Caf\u00e9 Recommendations in Konstanz<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Voglhaus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of our <strong>favourite caf\u00e9s<\/strong> in Konstanz. We liked it so much that we came back a second time! Voglhaus serves breakfast and lunch, but also a variety of cakes and pies. The espresso here was the best we found in Konstanz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also love that Voglhaus promotes a <strong>sustainable concept<\/strong>. For example, most of the dishes and snacks on offer are predominantly vegan and the coffee comes from a small roasting house. The seating areas are very nice, both indoor and outside. Note: the cafe is self-service, which was perhaps the only downside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Address:<\/em> Wessenbergstra\u00dfe 8, 78462 Konstanz<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"20961\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"20961\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-20961 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck-Konstanz-Tipps.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Breakfast Constance\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"21249\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"21249\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-21249 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Voglhaus-Konstanz.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Voglhaus Constance\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other recommended restaurants, cafes and bars in Konstanz:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Eugens<\/b>: Very nice, young organic restaurant with many vegetarian and vegan options.

This means that most of the sights and places of interest are within walking distance, which is super convenient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On first impressions, the hotel seems a little aged with time. However, <strong>our room<\/strong> was much more modern than we expected. It did get a little noisy at times, especially since our window was facing towards the streets. But we had a really nice view and overall had a very pleasant stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We didn\u2019t end up trying the <strong>breakfast<\/strong> here, but apparently it\u2019s very good.
