AlpacaCamping 1278

Little is recorded about the site itself: a brief getaway, uncomplicated to book, the description yields nothing more. So the region takes over. Salem is located inland from Lake Constance, between fruit plantations and vineyards; in September the air smells of windfall fruit. Tents, caravans and motorhomes stand here equally. In the town, the baroque minster of the former Cistercian monastery, down on the shore the pile dwellings of Unteruhldingen.1

Sights in the area1

Salem Castle

The former Cistercian abbey with its minster and prelature sits in the middle of the village. A walk through cloister and courtyards fills a rainy morning.

Unteruhldingen Stilt House Museum

Reconstructed Stone and Bronze Age villages on stilts in Lake Constance, linked by wooden walkways. The classic outing when children come along.

Affenberg Salem

Several hundred Barbary macaques roam freely in a fenced patch of woodland, fed by hand. Storks nest on the same grounds.

Birnau Pilgrimage Church

A rococo church above the vineyards on Lake Überlingen. On a clear day the view from the terrace runs across the water to the Alps.
