Today, it is a lively university town offering a wide range of recreational activities for young and old. The town on Lake Constance has managed to keep itself true to the long-standing traditions of trade and culture right up until the present day, adding many new aspects along the way.
The town really comes to life when you take a walk through the old town of Konstanz which has remained relatively unchanged since the Middle Ages.
The town is uniquely located on the shores of Lake Constance and the River Rhine and this, together with its close proximity to Switzerland, Austria and Liechtenstein, makes Konstanz the ideal spot for a holiday destination and a stopping-off point for all manner of excursions in the surrounding region.
