Pfullendorf

The headwaters of the Linzer Aach shape Pfullendorf’s setting — the river begins here in Upper Swabia and flows south toward Lake Constance, placing the town on the rolling plateau behind the Bodensee shore. Pfullendorf’s old centre still follows the footprint of a walled medieval settlement, with town gates marking former entrances. From 1282 until 1803 it held the rank of a Free Imperial City within the Holy Roman Empire, an unusually independent status that explains the civic weight of its historic core. Today, Seepark Linzgau provides a landscaped public space created around a former gravel pit for the 2000 State Garden Show.
