Lindau: Private Guided Walking Tour｜Germany

Discover medieval and half-timbered buildings that reveal their turbulent history on a private guided walking tour in Lindau. See the Mangturm tower, the Old Town Hall, the Catholic Cathedral of Our Lady, and more as your guide tells you about Lindau's complex history.
After meeting your guide, set off on your walking tour of Lindau, a town featuring Alpine views, lakefront cafes, and an old town stranded on a small island. Admire the Mangturm, one of the most famous still-standing watchtowers in the old medieval fortification belt.
In the background, see the two main landmarks that flank the entrance to Lindau's port. Check out the New Lighthouse on one side and a huge 6-meter, 50-ton Lion guarding the entrance on the other.
Pass the Thieves Tower, listen to its fascinating story, and learn how it received its nickname. Discover the figures of the “Fools Fountain,” each wearing masks worn by Lindau's guild of carnival fools.
Walk along Maximilian Street, once the seat of the guilds and Lindau's trade center of the city until you reach the gothic Old Town Hall. Marvel at the breathtaking murals on the facade, and hear about how one mural even started a huge erotic scandal.
Next, visit the Catholic Cathedral of Our Lady. See the richly decorated interior, featuring white stucco, many beautiful frescoes, and carvings in the Rococo style. During the tour, you'll also find out how Lindau got its name and its importance as a trading center along the route between Swabia and Italy.
