City Information

Konstanz

Konstanz - DEKNZ-0Konstanz - DEKNZ-1Konstanz - DEKNZ-2

Konstanz is a city in southern Germany along the Swiss border. The Rhine River splits the city in half right before it feeds into Lake Constance, and this scenic setting makes Konstanz a popular leisure town in Germany. The historic Old Town quarter, unscathed by bombs in World War II, is remarkably preserved, with heavy Swiss influence. The Niederburg district is particularly alluring for visitors, as it is the oldest part of Konstanz. Some of the buildings here were built over 700 years ago. On Friday nights, enjoy live music, and shops open late for a welcoming and festive atmosphere in this area.

Don't miss a tour of Konstanz Cathedral, a structure whose construction spanned the years between 1100 and 1854. Climb its tower for breathtaking views of Lake Constance. Of course, other great activities are boating or kayaking on Lake Constance. The peaceful and scenic lake offers plenty of Instagrammable moments.

The nearest airports to Konstanz are Zurich Airport, Friedrichshafen Airport, and Stuttgart Airport. Both German and Swiss trains arrive at Konstanz Hauptbahnhof, so connecting to both countries' national rail networks is easy.
