Constance, founded by the Romans, is more than 2,000 years old. The city tells the ups and downs of the occidental history. During the city's most famous event, the Council of Konsanz of 1414-1418, the entire Christian world looked to Constance. Emperor Siegesmund also paid his visit with a large entourage.

Welcome to Constance

Constance, with its historic city center, the Constance Council and its small, fine museums, has a uniquely tangible history, a very lively present and many ideas and plans for the future. Art, culture, enjoyment and water characterize the largest city on Lake Constance, which is considered the pulsating center of the four-country region and invites you to hike, bike, store or simply linger - a feast for the senses.

Constance, the vibrant center of the four-country region, offers many locations for night owls & bon vivants. Modern bars, cafés and pubs are located in the historic old town. Cozy wine taverns can be found in the oldest district of Constance, the Niederburg. Rather in the mood for a cool beer? Then stop by the Brauhaus, the Constanzer Wirtshaus or one of the beer gardens right on the waterfront, for example!

The Mainau Adventure Forest is much more than just an ordinary climbing forest.
