Architectural Landmarks in the Lake Constance region

Lake Constance is the third largest freshwater lake in Europe and its shores are shared among Germany, Switzerland and Austria. It was formed by the Rhine glacier after the Würm glaciation about 10000 years ago. Nowadays, it is a well known tourism region for sightseeing, water sports and cultural events such as the Bregenzer Festspiele.
