    Constance Harbour

    Our humorous, yet very informative city tour, during which you get to know the past and present of the historic Lake Constance metropolis, starts at the port in Constance. Our guides will introduce you to the courtesan Imperia and tell you what happened during the world event of the Council, which took place from 1414-1418. Continue through the picturesque center of Konstanz's old town, passing imposing buildings and adorable townhouses, which often look back on an almost 1,000-year building history. On a short tour of the cathedral of Constance, the former Episcopal Church, you will learn a lot of history from the past of Constance from our guide. Our tour ends after about 2 hours at the market place in Konstanz. The square is located in the heart of the old town and invites you to relax in a cosy café, take a snack or stroll through the many original boutiques.

    Munsterplatz, Konstanz

    The sprawling Münsterplatz is lined with mighty cathedral courtyards from the Baroque period, when Constance was still a bishop's seat. It was also the site of the "Constantia" castle, built by the Romans almost 2000 years ago, which finally gave Constance its name. Take a look at the remains of the ancient Roman castle walls.
