The Lighthouse and the Bavarian Lion Sculpture add a lot of character to the town's lakefront. One can climb up to the top of the Lighthouse from where the view must be breathtaking on a clear day. I did not do that, unfortunately and the day I spent in Lindau was cloudy and wet. A definite must see if you happen to be there in good weather
Took a boat from Bregenz to Lindau, was greeted by a lighthouse and a lion on opposite sides of the harbor entrance. Nice entry in to this quaint little area of Germany. We did not partake but you can climb to the top of the lighthouse
Landau is a historic Bavarian town located on a small island on Lake Constance(Bodensee) which is connected with the mainland by a road traffic bridge & a railway dam & in close proximity to Bregenz capital of the Vorarlberg Austria & Switzerland.Limits have been set to prevent the exploitation of Lake Constance but boat trips depart Landau costing 10euros pp & lasting one hour which we found less than stimulating despite the translated commentary provided.Much more rewarding & free was the stroll around Landau to wonder at the beauty of it's historic Harbour Entrance with Lighthouse, Bavarian Lion Sculpture & Town Hall .
The lion and lighthouse make for photo opportunity. Lots of stairs up to the top of the lighthouse which provides a scenic view of the Bodensee and town.
Wonderful lighthouse and Bavarian lion sculpture, very picturesque view. Looking like somewhere in the south of Europe=)
The cost to climb the lighthouse was very little. The narrow winding star case goes up and has landings every so often. Th last climb being a ladder. There is nothing much to see inside the lighthouse but the view from the top is worth the climb. The lion and harbour front. Worth doing if in Lindau.
Going up the lighthouse is exhausting (probably not recommended to everyone) but offers a nice view of the promenade and the city (although it would be a lot better if it was higher).
Lindau has a beautiful little harbor and lovey lakeside promenade - take the time to walk around the lake and the town with all its little shops and restaurants.
Interesting information about the lighthouse and the lake inside the lighthouse with stunning view over lake and city on top! Easy to to also with young children, acceptable cost
The inside of the lighthouse is a disgrace, full of graffiti and badly maintained. However, the view from above is fantastic. How come that the Lindauer's can't look after such a beautiful trademark?
