Friedrichshafen Castle Pier

Highlight • Bridge

King Charles I had the castle footbridge built from sandstone as a promenade footbridge.
It was only used for presentations and to greet arriving guests from a distance.

Statues that children love and that they can touch. There's something cute about them.

Friedrichshafen has dedicated a fountain and a monument to the city's most famous son. Not far from the city train station you will find the charming Zeppelin fountain, whose fountain figure, created in 1909, miraculously remained almost intact during the war years of 1944 in the middle of the destroyed city. For the Zeppelin anniversary year 2000, the fountain was re-erected as a reconstruction of the original.

On Sunday we took the train to Friedrichshafen. Unlike the rain at home, there was sunshine.
My way first leads me to the Zeppelin monument on the waterfront. Once there, an airship was already passing in the sky.


The Zeppelin fountain is also very nice, pumping around 125 cubic meters of lake water per hour for the 25 to 30 …

The city of zeppelins was on the agenda for today and after a 20-minute drive and then a short walk, we stood in the city's bank park. With the weather turning to summer and a holiday coming up, a lot of people had the same idea. Passing a few ports for sailing yachts, pedal boats, motor boats and ferries with …

Let's start from the port; with all its beautiful attractions. The city has a stately waterfront.
Only in the Friedrichshafen palace garden does one begin to instinctively improvise: the shore path ends at a vantage point, the high wall around the palace prevents any kind of insight. No wonder: the treasury of the House of Württemberg is located behind these …

With thick clouds, it was unclear how the day would turn out weather-wise. But Friedrichshafen works in any weather. First there was a visit to Graf Zeppelin. Here history is brought to life in such a diverse way that it captivates you, even if you are perhaps not so interested in technology.
Then a short stroll towards the school museum. …

Today we took the public transport to Friedrichshafen, which is free thanks to the guest card. This is a very interesting place and well worth a visit.

Unfortunately we didn't remember that it was a public holiday. The lakeside promenade in particular was jam-packed, so we didn't stay there for very long.

After an overnight stay in Singen am Hohentwiel, my wife and I made a short stop in Friedrichshafen on the way to Lindau.

I would recommend the old town car park. The Zeppelin Museum is also just around the corner, which is really worth a look.
The lake promenade with all the restaurants and shops is reminiscent of Lake Garda. Many monuments and highlights.
