Guided Story

Imagine standing here at the base of a tower that's almost a century old, brimming with stories. Look up – the cylindrical shape you see was once a water tower, shimmering in the sun. Did you know it also served as a youth hostel, welcoming travelers from afar? Now, turn around and take a look – to your left is the quiet Allmannsdorf Cemetery, a place of reflection. And as you glance south, you might catch a glimpse of the St. George Church spire. The view from up here over Lake Constance is especially stunning at sunset, when the lake glows in golden light.
