Things to see and do in Friedrichshafen

Friedrichshafen is the State-capital of Baden-Wurttemberg in Germany. The German Zeppelin industry was based nearby and the area was for many years at the centre of German aviation industry (including the manufacture of some early Dornier models). Following the World Wars the city lost its role as maker of aircraft, however, visitors today can certainly learn more about that period in the local Zeppelin and Dornier museums. Car users may wish to drive out of Friedrichshafen and experience a ride on the famous car-ferry service across to Romanshorn in the neighbouring country of Switzerland. This town is a Swiss Heritage site and contains some wonderful places to eat a refreshing lunch.
