This quaint Bavarian city set on the shores of Lake Constance in southern Germany has plenty to offer visitors.
It’s known for its vibrant cultural scene and is home to many festivals and events that take place throughout the year.
Lindau also has a beautiful waterfront and plenty of parks, making it a great place to explore either by bike or on foot.
Those who visit will find plenty to see and do, from relaxing on the beach to browsing the boutiques or grabbing a bite to eat at one of the restaurants lining the main street, Maximillianstrasse.
One popular attraction is the Mangturm Tower, a centuries-old historical landmark that now hosts seasonal storytelling events based on classic fairy tales.
Another famous sight is the Old Town Hall, which was built in the 12th century and has been restored several times since then. If you’re interested in history or architecture, this is a must-see!
However, its most iconic landmark is undoubtedly the Bavarian Lion statue that stands guard at the entrance to Lindau’s harbor.
If this sounds like the kind of place you’d like to add to your itinerary, keep reading for a list of additional attractions and activities so you can plan your trip accordingly
