What to expect

1
Constance Harbour

The port beauty “Imperia” welcomes guests to the port. The generous sculpture by the sculptor Peter Lenk has become the new landmark of the Lake Constance metropolis. Learn from our guide what this mysterious lady is all about and listen to the ghostly events that occurred here during the Council period in the 15th century.

Duration 15 minutes
2

Konzilgebaeude Konstanz

The beautiful council building was built as a department store and goods handling centre as early as the 14th century. Not only was a new pope elected in this historic building, but a mysterious miracle also occurred here. Your guide knows all kinds of strange stories about miracles, mystics, revenants, cruel figures, strange apparitions and terrible happenings.

Duration 10 minutes
3

Fischmarkt

<nil>

A mighty house, five stories high, stands here at the fish market, once built in the 13th century by a powerful Konstanz patrician family. Supposedly, it was built from top to bottom – so it’s a miracle that it still stands!

Duration 10 minutes
4

Münster Unserer Lieben Frau

<nil>

The venerable cathedral, the former Episcopal Church, is reported to have once been eerie lights of night circling the cathedral tower, singing psalms from nowhere and noise coming from the closed cathedral caused by ghosts of cathedrals announcing death. Several miracles are also said to have taken place in the cathedral: macabre ghost phenomena, traces of death sentences, abysmal allegories and mystical signs still report these events today. Under the all-seeing eye of God, our guide will tell you about all these wonders.

Duration 15 minutes
5
Munsterplatz, Konstanz

Nowadays, Münsterplatz is characterized by powerful cathedral courtyards from the Baroque period, built at a time when Constance was still an important seat of a bishop. Today, it is hard to imagine that the square served as a cemetery for centuries. Some ghost phenomena are said to have already existed here: for example, long shadows are reported, which are said to have stretched over the cathedral manors, whereupon the cathedral man in question met his death. So it is not surprising that the cathedral of Constance shows demonic figures to ward off the evil spirits.

Duration 10 minutes
6

Niederburg

Once the Blessed Mother herself was said to have ensured with a glamorous apparition of Mary that the city of Constance was spared from destruction by war enemies. The oldest district of Konstanz, Niederburg, still houses medieval narrow streets and dark corners. Let our guide take you to some of them!

Duration 10 minutes
7
Rheintorturm

Even the most powerful German river, the Rhine, has already done wonders here at the Rhine Gate Tower, where the German Rhine count is only just beginning with kilometer 0. You will be amazed at what our guide knows how to report here!

Duration 10 minutes
8

Dominicans Island

The Dominican Island is located in front of the old town of Konstanz. Dominican monks built a monastery here in the 13th century. Only a hundred years later, this monastery was the scene of the work of an important mystic. Our guide will tell you who they were.

Duration 10 minutes
9

Konstanzer Obermarkt

Just a few steps from the Obermarkt in Constance, there is a 16th-century house where a ghost is doing his mischief. The residents of the house report an eerie sigh, which sometimes rings out, and a cold breath, which they then feel. If you are brave enough, our guide will be happy to show you the haunted house of Konstanz.

Duration 10 minutes
