For centuries, hard-working gardeners have been sowing, plan-ting and weeding at Lake Constance. From the castle grounds to the cottage garden, today there is row upon row of charming green oases spread across the Lake Constance. The parks and gardens allow their visitors to take an exciting journey through the epochs of garden culture – from the Stone Age to the present day, interspersed with some magnificent views of the lake.
