Birnau – Pilgrimage church and baroque jewelThe Birnau Basilica is one of the highlights of the Upper Swabian Baroque Route. Surrounded by grape vines, the majestic pil-grimage church of Birnau stands tall above the bay of Maurach and offers a breath-taking panoramic view over Lake Con-stance, the Island Mainau, and as far as the Swiss Alps.

The Cistercian Priory was built between 1747 and 1750. The renowned baroque architects and painters Peter Thumb, Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer, and the fresco painter Gottfried Bernhard Götz worked together to create this impressive work of architecture and art. The famous sculpture of the so-called “Honigschlecker” located inside the church is an absolute must-see.

Delights for all your senses …The beautiful promenade that stretches from the marina to the pile-dwellings is the ideal setting for rest and relaxation. From here, you can also rent a paddle or motorboat and explore the lake. Or relax at the natural sand and pebble beach with its own snack bar, for a day of swimming and relaxation. If you feel like playing a game of mini golf or bil-liard golf, the mini golf course is located on the promenade.

Unwind with a delicious meal and a refreshing glass of local wine on one of the numerous terraces at the trendy restau-rants along the promenade.

Lake Dwelling Museum and“Stollenwiesen” (World Cultural Heritage)Take a trip to the past! For a first-hand experience of what you always wanted to know about the Stone Age visit the largest open-air museum in southern Germany: the Lake dwelling Museum (Pfahlbaumuseum Unteruhldingen). The 45-60 minute guided tour back in time takes visitors through the settlement and offers them a hands-on experience of the daily life of Stone and Bronze Age settlers (4000 - 850 B.C.) on the shores of Lake Constance.

The houses in the settlement display a wide variety of objects that Ötzi, the Iceman discovered in the Alps, used in his day-to-day life. Life-like scenes depicting human figures and animals, miniature models as well as objects that can be handled and the residential dwellings of the lake settlers offer a fascinating insight into the everyday life of Stone Age people.

Since June 2011, the sunken pile-dwell-ing settlement located in the archaeological site of “Stollenwiesen” has been added to the World Cultural Herit-age list.
