Romanshorn.
A harbor town on the Swiss shore of Lake Constance
Boat RentalsHiking
Romanshorn sits on the Swiss shore of Lake Constance, in the Thurgau region known for its vineyards. The town grew up around its harbor, which has long served as a transport hub on the lake.
The old town keeps a modest scale, with narrow streets near the waterfront. Lake Constance opens wide views toward Germany and Austria on clear days, and local markets sell produce and wine from the surrounding countryside. Trails climb into the hills behind the town before returning to the shore. The lake invites slower pursuits: a swim, watching sailboats cross the bay, or coffee by the water.
