Konstanz to Meersburg return

A day trip from Konstanz to Meersburg returning by boat across the Bodensee. We drove around Lake Constance from Konstanz and stopped in Birnau to view the church there.

Day 1260 – August 13th 2017

The view over the Bodensee is pretty special as well.

And this is the impressive Catholic church.

From here it was only a short drive to Meersburg where we had a coffee and ice cream coupe before walking around the town.

This you can see with the bridge to the gate.

In the photo below you can see the Old Castle as viewed from the lake level and in the distance you can just make out the top of the New Castle built alongside it.
