On the way home from Konstanz, I stopped off at Meersburg, which has a lovely old castle. My Erlebniskarte gave me entry to this as well, but as I had limited time before the final boat to Lindau left, it was the fastest tour ever. At least it wasn't raining.

| Approaching Meersburg |
 |
| Burg Meersburg sits above the town |
 |
| Along the waterfront |
 |
| Not sure about these two very impressive buildings? Museums? |
 |
| Neues Schloss, the new castle |
 |
| Notice the Zeppelin |
There are lots of lovely flowers in Meersburg, too. I had some fun trying to get them in all my photos.
 |
| Looking up at the Burg |
 |
| Burg's on the left |
 |
| Same lot of tulips, but looking lakewards |
The Burg is up the hill (of course!) Steep walking in places. This lovely old half-timbered mill had a working mill wheel. Gorgeous.
 |
| The walkway at the top is the entrance to Burg Meersburg |
 |
| Couldn't get the flowers in this tower shot! |
Then for my speedy visit inside the Burg.
 |
| Phil - this one's for you |
 |
| Cold and gloomy dining hall |
 |
| A throne! |
 |
| This spiral staircase spirals in both directions |
 |
| A lovely model of the Burg |
Heading back down the hill to catch the boat back to Lindau.
 |
| Nope - not my boat, thank heavens! |
