    A very nice city. A lot to see. Downtown, water and surroundings. Mainau Island is not far away. Ferries to the Bodenseeorten are reached quickly. Riding a bike is fun. There are steadily expanding bicycle routes.

            CEYOND has already written the most interesting thing from Wikipedia.
            It is also worth mentioning that the figure rotates slowly and therefore has everything in view. For us, this means that we can see them from all sides if we are patient.

                  The statue of Imperia is a satirical reminder of the Council of Constance (1414–1418). It shows a voluptuous courtesan with a deep cleavage and a cape that is only barely closed by a belt, giving her a clear erotic charisma.

                  On her raised hands she carries two dwarfish naked men. The man in her right hand wears the crown of a king on his head and holds an orb in his hand; the figure to her left wears a papal tiara and sits with her legs crossed. It is not clear whether the figures represent portraits of those in power at the time of the Council of Constance, Emperor Sigismund and Pope Martin V, or whether they are generally intended to represent secular and spiritual power as personifications. The artist himself sees them as naked jugglers who have illegally donned the insignia of power.

                            Konstanz is close to Switzerland 🇨🇭 and has a beautiful old town with good prices to offer 😉

                              Konstanz is located on Lake Constance, at the outlet of the Rhine from the upper part of the lake, directly on the border with Switzerland (Canton Thurgau). The neighboring Swiss town of Kreuzlingen has grown together with Konstanz, so that the state border runs through the middle of individual houses and streets, but also towards Tägermoos along the Grenzbach or Sau-Bach. When the weather is good you can see the Alps, especially when there is foehn.

                              On the left (southern) side of the Rhine are the old town and the Paradies district; The newer parts of the city, however, are located on the right (northern) side of the Rhine, on the Bodanrück peninsula between the Untersee and the Überlinger See. The old town of Konstanz and the districts to the west are the only areas in Germany that lie south of the Seerhein, on the “Swiss side”. This area is also - along with the Kollerinsel near Brühl - one of the two state areas on the left bank of the Rhine in Baden-Württemberg.

                              The urban area has 34 kilometers of shoreline and covers 1.31 km² of water area. The lowest point is the lake level at 395 m above sea level. NN (mean water level), the highest point at 570 m above sea level. NN is located at Rohnhauser Hof in Dettingen.

                                    The "Imperia" weighs 18 tons and is 9 meters high.

                                      The position of the Imperia in Komoot is unfortunately wrong - but it is only a few steps to Peter Lenk's work there. And you cannot overlook the secret (?!) Landmark of Constance ;-)

                                        The city of Konstanz is very beautiful and really surprising. There are many things to discover in the streets of the old town, medieval houses, the cathedral, the statues on the banks of the Rhine, the pier on the Bodensee. Perfect for weekend or family outings

                                          At Konstanz Port, the turquoise blue water inspires you to take a small (pedal) boat trip. The artistically rotating Imperia also appears impressive. Statue at the pier end. The oldest level measuring station on Lake Constance and in Banden-Würtenberg is located at the base.

                                              We took our time and enjoyed the hustle and bustle in the harbor before we returned on the ship. Please note the prices and travel times for the ships and ferries.
