10 Free Things to do in Konstanz That You Shouldn't Miss

May 18, 2022 Rosalyn Ihle

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.

Old Town (Niederburg)

Reviewed By Raoulr89 - Sittard, The Netherlands

Konstanz really surprised me. It is a city which has all. Good climate, beautiful lake, mountains in the distance, lots of history and nationalities, good restaurants and bars and the old town is in the middle of all. Quite some parts are car free luckily. It contains cosy small streets with beautiful buildings and large squares and boulevard streets which are alive. Everything is well maintained and perfect to do on foot because it isn't very big. It is really worth the time to take a couple of hours and stroll through the old town. Most restaurants and night life are also located here. Trough an underground passage at the station you can easily walk to the dock and the Constanz Lake.

Constance Harbour

Reviewed By Gargoyle6258

We rode the catamaran from Friedrichshafen to Constance. What a fun trip. We first went to the Zeppelin Museum and then rode the catamaran across Lake Constance arriving in Constance Harbour to view the The Imperia statue at the entrance of the harbour. We disembarked and had lunch at a nice little Pizza place and then walked around the beautiful little town. Got back in time for our return trip to Friedrichshafen. It was lovely!
