The first farm buildings on this site were first documented in 1155. They served as a farmstead (granary) and a boat landing stage for Salem Abbey. The expansion to its present prestigious appearance took place after 1722 under Salem's Abbot Stephan I. Jung. After the expansion, the estate included a residential wing, a chapel, farm buildings, and a garden. The staff who cultivated the surrounding vineyards also lived there. Many abbots preferred Maurach as a summer residence to Salem, which was located further inland. The abbey used the buildings as a transshipment point for goods that were delivered or picked up directly by ship. The so-called "Prelate's Way" led from Maurach to Salem, along which not only the abbots traveled, but also goods were transported. Maurach played an important role in the abbey's economic life, as no toll had to be paid for the transport of goods to the lake. With the secularization of the monastery in 1804, the buildings fell to the Margraviate of Baden. In 1919, they were purchased by the Cistercians of the Bregenz Territorial Abbey of Wettingen-Mehrerau, along with the Birnau pilgrimage church.

The Gallerturm also served the imperial city as a powder depot. — When the construction of the fortifications on the Gallerhöhe began in 1587, Überlingen was likely under time pressure, as even the girls and boys were recruited to weave the fortifications. In 1534, the women's monastery of St. Gallus was relocated from the Gallerberg to the Fischerhäuservorstadt. It had to make way for the expanded fortifications. This monastery has been documented since 1300, when its inhabitants adopted the Franciscan rule. The sisters of the Galler monastery secured their existence by operating a girls' school. The Gallerturm and Gallerschanze were largely spared enemy action during the Swedish siege of 1634, as the fighting was concentrated in the east and north of the city. However, the tower provided the backdrop for the unforgettable Überlingen Swedish Games, marking the 300th anniversary of that siege in 1934. The Society of Art Lovers of Überlingen now has its home in the Gallerturm.

Great view of Heiligenberg Castle and the surrounding area of Lake Constance. When the weather conditions are good, you can see a wonderful Alpine panorama.

The Birnau pilgrimage church is idyllically located directly on the northern shore of Lake Constance between the German communities of Nussdorf and Uhldingen-Mühlhofen. The beautiful baroque church dedicated to Mary attracts many thousands of visitors every year and enchants them with its baroque splendor - including the church and monastery building built by Peter Thumb (1681-1766), frescoes by Gottfried Bernhard Göz (1708-1774) as well as stucco, altars and sculptures by Josef Anton Feuchtmayer (1696–1770).

The Gallerturm towers more than 30 meters high on a rocky spur high above the Gallergraben. The defense tower is named after a convent dedicated to St. Gallus and had to give way to the new fortifications in 1534. Gallus was significantly involved in the Christianization of the Lake Constance area. The monastery and city of St. Gallen go back to him.
