Reichenau

Reichenau has a rich history dating back to the 8th century. It was founded by Benedictine monks and was an important centre of religious art and culture in Europe for a long time.

There are many tourist attractions for visitors to discover, such as the monastery of St. Georgen or the church of St. Peter and Paul with its impressive frescoes from the 11th century.

Cultural highlights are also plentiful here: The annual music festival on the island attracts thousands of music lovers every year; meanwhile, the Wine Festival Wine & Pleasure Festival attracts all gourmets.

The culinary scene in Reichenau is also worth a visit! Be sure to try the local speciality "Reichenaubraten", which is made from pork, or enjoy fresh fish straight from the lakeshore at one of the many restaurants on the waterfront.

In summer, outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling or water sports can be enjoyed - the Mettnau peninsula with its nature reserve and the popular Horn lido (with sandy beach!) is particularly beautiful. In winter, on the other hand, ice skating on the frozen Lake Constance is a great option.

If it rains, you can pay a visit to the monastery museum or the gallery on the island. Here, works of art and artefacts reflecting the history and culture of Reichenau are on display.

In conclusion, Reichenau is definitely worth a visit! It offers its visitors a variety of historical sights, cultural highlights as well as culinary delights - all surrounded by a breathtaking landscape on Lake Constance.
