Sights in the area1

Unteruhldingen Pile Dwelling Museum

A reconstructed prehistoric stilt-house village on the shore of Lake Constance, showing how people lived here thousands of years ago. A solid afternoon out with kids.

Stein am Rhein

A small town where Lake Constance flows into the Rhine, known for the painted facades of its old town. Wandering the lanes is the rainy-day-friendly classic of the area.

Bregenzer Ach
