On a tour of the old town of Constance, which has remained almost unchanged since the Middle Ages, this traditional trading town really comes to life. The town’s unique location on the shores of Lake Constance and the River Rhine, and its proximity to Switzerland, Austria and Liechtenstein, make Constance an ideal holiday destination and touring base for excursions in the surrounding region. Lake Constance is the largest lake in Germany with a surface area of 536 km² and a volume of 48,5 billion m³ of water.
