Visiting Konstanz, Germany


Lying on picturesque Lake Constance (or Bodensee in German), Konstanz has been a city since the first century AD, later gaining prominence as a religious center and then as the site of the only bridge crossing the Rhine River. The Old Town is one of Konstanz’s main attractions and is home to the city’s famed cathedral, originally dating from the 7th century. Due to a border anomaly, Konstanz lies on Switzerland’s land mass, and the Swiss town of Kreuzlingen is just a short walk away.

This is a very convenient place to stay, near the ferry and the bus line. It's clean and comfortable, although a bit like a dormitory. Not high style, but for an expensive town like Konstanz, not...more
