Überlingen
An imperial free city on the north shore of Lake Constance, known for its Gothic minster, palm-lined lakeside promenade and spa gardens.
Überlingen is a medieval imperial free city on the northwest bay of Lake Constance. It is famous for its long lakeside promenade (Seepromenade), lined with palms and flowers, and enjoys a mild climate. The Gothic St. Nicholas Minster in the Old Town center is the largest late Gothic church in the Lake Constance region and houses a huge carved wooden high altar. The town hall council chamber, the city park with its cactus garden, and the walkway along the old town walls and moat are also worth a visit. You can reach it from Konstanz by train or by summer ferry.
