Romanshorn – The port city on Lake Constance

See, hear, be amazed! The experienceable Autobau Museum brings visitors up close to fabulous classics and legendary US road cruisers, grandiose Gran Turismo, mythical super sports cars, professional racing cars and even Formula 1. Because in the fascinating car exhibition in Romanshorn, the cars may be discovered without barrier tapes.

An exciting way to learn more about one of Switzerland's largest ports, its history, Romanshorn's city life and the surrounding Lake Constance is to take a harbour tour. Captain Ruedi Fürst takes interested visitors on his MS Zeppelin from May to September. Accompanying guides entertain the guests with significant and curious facts about Lake Constance. Those who want to reminisce on a journey through time of the overwhelming history of transport and understand the importance of access to the lake are in the right place. Families should mark 19 June and 7 August 2022 in their calendars: The special trip «Fairytale wolrd in Romanshorn» combines a unique boat experience through the port of Romanshorn with amusing storytelling.

Whether on foot, by bike or inline skates, or even on the pump track: everyone will find a suitable route for an excursion into nature around Romanshorn. During the "Bluescht", the time of fruit tree blossom in spring, the Thurgau shows its most beautiful side. A cycling tour from Romanshorn takes you once around the pink-dotted sea of blossoms. Bicycles and e-bikes can be rented in Romanshorn at Rent a Bike.

Treat yourself to some time out and enjoy the fresh sea air on board the scheduled boats of the Schweizerischen Bodensee Schifffahrt. These invite you on a voyage of discovery on and around Lake Constance. A variety of culinary theme ships, such as raclette and fondue trips or brunch ships, complete the offer. The ferry from the harbour takes you to the other side of Lake Constance to Friedrichshafen.

After an eventful day, a beautiful hike or a bike tour, the beautifully located lakeside pool in Romanshorn offers a refreshing dip during the summer season or simply a spacious green area directly on the lake for relaxing sunbathing. Of course, the well anchored raft that is usual for a lakeside pool is not missing, nor is the shaded paddling pool for children. And for those who still don't feel sufficiently exhausted, there is a 50-metre sports pool.

For railway fans, this place is a must. The Locorama, a former locomotive depot, sees itself as a "hands-on museum". In the locomotive simulator, guests can prove themselves as train drivers . There is also a trolley and a children's train that takes children through the grounds.

The Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen offers a special kind of experience. A boat trip across the beautiful Lake Constance with the Schweizerischen Bodensee-Schifffahrtsgesellschaft from Romanshorn can turn this excursion into an eventful day out. You can see the most extensive and important collection on the history and technology of Zeppelin airships.

Romanshorn has a lot to offer culturally. The Museum at the harbour in the historic customs house shows the development of Romanshorn's culture. The Roxy cinema is a meeting place for film lovers of all interests and is an integral part of cultural life. Klangreich entertains with sophisticated chamber music and the Bistro-Committee combines bistro culture with culinary enjoyment in an atmospheric setting.

Once a year, the streets in Romanshorn are closed to motorised traffic. At SlowUp, it's your own muscle power that counts, with inline skates, e-bikes and bicycles being the means of transport of the moment. The annual fairy tale and story festival "Klapperlapapp" is also an integral part of the events calendar. In Romanshorn's recreation area and amidst the chirping of birds, families immerse themselves in strange fairytale worlds. These events and other theatre performances, festivals or sporting events can be found in the richly filled event calendar.
