  • Train stations are always distinctive building in any city. I try to see and take a picture of the train station building in every city I visit. In Lindau the train station is one of the nicest I've seen. I'm sure the building has a great history also but I haven't find it yet.

  • Zum Cavazzen is one of the most outstanding private residence in Lindau. The renowned art historian, Delio, called this impressive mansion "the most beautiful patrician residence on the shores of Lake Constance". The building was completely renovated in 1730 following the big fire in 1728 by the Swiss master builder Grubenmann. The mural paintings were restored in 1963. Today it is home to the town museum and an art gallery.

  • The Old lighthouse is right in the middle of the promenade at the harbour entrance and it is also called Mang Tower. Built in the 13th century, it played a prominent role in the medieval town's fortification. From here you have a magnificent view of Bregenz, capital of Voralberg, Austria, as well as of the hills of Bregenz Forest.

  • There are only two bridges that links the island town to the mainland. On the old one there is the railway and on the new one there is the road for cars. The new Seebrucke was officially opened in 2000.

  • Right where the Seebrucke bridge comes into the island, there is a small park. You might find it useful for recovering after strolling the streets of Lindau island or when you want a place more quiet than on the busy promenade.
