Travel - Germany - Konstanz

in travel •  7 years ago 

For today's travel post I'm featuring another beautiful little medieval German Town, called Konstanz. The city is situated next to the famous Lake Constance (or Bodensee in German) and I featured one of its beautiful churches in a previous post.

Like most of the other German towns I visited it is rich with architectural detail and history. According to wikipedia traces of civilisation in Konstanz date back to the stone age! We had limited time to visited so basically walked this town and checked out the main attractions/points of interest including 'The Imeria' a statue at the habour, the old town square and various churches.

We also climbed to the top of Catedral De Constance for a bird's eye view of the town - absolutely worth it!

Here are some of my most memorable photos with a comment or two:

Beautiful town! Lovely aspect.

Thanks @rajskij-sad.

Very nice, when were you there?

Sadly about 10 years ago! Can't wait to go back and show my wife this place. We ventured off during a work trip to Ulm to see Konstanz over a weekend. ;)

Well, next time give me a shout and we can do a run together :-D

I will definitely do that. Where exactly do you live?

Just outside Zurich, so relatively speaking not that far. LOL

Haha, if you have come all the way from South Africa already, that is close. ;)

That's what I mean :-D

Im amazed on the aerial shots, awesome view of the town. Nice post @extremejogging!
