Constance (Konstanz in German) is a historic university city located in southern Germany, on the shores of Lake Constance (Bodensee). As the largest city on Lake Constance, it has served as an important cultural and economic center since medieval times. The city escaped bombing during World War II by keeping its lights on at night, making it indistinguishable from neighboring neutral Switzerland. This fortunate circumstance helped preserve its rich architectural heritage, including the well-preserved Old Town (Altstadt) with its characteristic medieval buildings and the landmark Konstanz Minster.
The city is home to the University of Konstanz, founded in 1966, which has significantly influenced the cultural landscape of the region. Throughout history, Constance played a significant role in European religious history as the site of the Council of Constance (1414-1418), one of the most important church councils of the Middle Ages. Today, the city maintains its position as a cultural hub, offering various museums that showcase its rich history and artistic heritage, while its location at the intersection of German, Swiss, and Austrian borders makes it a unique cultural melting pot.
