ガイエンホーフェンの洞窟・トップ20

A prolific writer who, in 1871, used his royalties to buy a large building plot on the Mettnau peninsula and had his "Villa Seehalde" built there. In 1876, he then bought the rest of the peninsula to build his "Scheffelschlößchen" (Scheffel Castle).

What you learn on a tour of the castle: After Napoleon's fall, his stepdaughter, the Dutch Queen Hortense, bought the Arenenberg castle estate in 1817 and made it her residence in exile. She renovated and furnished the magnificent salons in style. She brought her nine-year-old son Louis Napoléon with her from France, who later became the last emperor of France under the name Napoleon III. His wife, Empress Eugénie, expanded the castle to include additional salons before donating the property to the canton of Thurgau in 1906.

Steckborn, located on the Swiss side of the Untersee, is one of the beautiful places on the Swiss side that invite with a historic old town. The first written mention of Steckborn can be found in the middle of the 9th century in connection with the island of Reichenau. The first traces of settlement go back to the Neolithic Age. Pile-dwelling settlements were built here as well, as is known from the Überlinger See.
