Bregenz's landmark, the Martinsturm, offers a wonderful panoramic view of the mountain, city and lake. The interior of the tower is also worth seeing:
The permanent exhibition on the first floor and the regular special exhibitions in the former tower keeper's apartment provide a deep insight into Bregenz's city history.

Upper Town Gate (Oberstadt Gate), Bregenz

Highlight • Historical Site

The Upper Town is the oldest part of the city. Bregenz originated from here.

The Celts were already here as early as 1500 BC. Then came the Romans and later the Alemanni. Around 1200, the castle settlement, which is still visible today, was built by a count who granted small parcels of land here as hereditary fiefs. From 1450 onwards, the Habsburgs bought land here and combined some of the parcels.

The Martinsturm (St. Martin's Tower) is highly recommended. For just €3.50 admission, you not only enjoy a beautiful (protected) panoramic view and medieval stones, but you can also learn about the history of Bregenz.

Bregenz Lake Stage

Highlight • Structure

The world's largest floating stage in Bregenz, Austria, the venue for the Bregenz Festival, which takes place annually in July and August, is also a worthwhile destination outside the festival season. Fun fact: in 2008 filming for the James Bond film “A Quantum of Solace” took place here.

May 11, 2025,🇦🇹 Bregenz, 11.05.2025 ☀️🌤️

A stroll through Bregenz in summery temperatures. The city is truly wonderful, which the fantastic weather also contributed to. There are numerous historic buildings to admire in the city center, including the upper town. On this Sunday, however, life was much more centered on the promenade along Lake Constance, with its restaurants and cafés, beautiful green spaces, and wonderful views …

Bregenz, the capital of Vorarlberg, is always worth a visit 🤗 due to its exposed location at the border triangle and at the eastern end of Lake Constance, starting point for many tours, whether on foot (e.g. hike to the Pfänder), by bike (e.g. B. for a circumnavigation of Lake Constance) or by car to Dornbirn, Feldkirch (both A) or …
