In front of it a central and larger parking lot and then this imposing city gate. You walk through it and feel transported back in time.

March 31, 2024,Von Stein am Rhein auf die Burg Hohenklingen
We were on the island of Reichenau over Easter and from there we took a boat to Stein am Rhein. You will therefore also find photos taken on the outward and return journeys "in" Stein am Rhein.
