    Description

    I live here near Wangen im Allgäu with my two cats, goat Smillla, a sheep, two geese, chickens, and bees.

    There's a large vegetable garden here, which allows me to grow my own produce, especially in the summer, and also to produce seeds.

    Many trees and bushes have been planted on the property to provide as much biodiversity and habitat as possible for animals and plants.

    A beautiful river below the property and a nearby lake invite you to swim and relax.

    A lovely caravan is a new addition to the property, available for living and other uses.

    Ich lebe hier gemeinsam mit meinen 2 Katzen, Ziege Smillla, einem Schaf, 2 Gänsen, Hühnern und Bienen in der Nähe von Wangen im Allgäu.
    Es gibt hier einen grossen Gemüsegarten aus dem ich mich vor allem im Sommer selbst versorgen kann und auch Saatgut herstelle.
    Viele Bäume und Büsche wurden auf dem Grundstück gepflanzt um eine möglichst grosse Vielfalt und Lebensraum für Tiere und Pflanzen zu bieten.

    Einer schöner Fluss unterhalb vom Grundstück und ein See in der Nähe laden zum Baden und verweilen ein.
    Neu auf dem Grundstück ist ein schöner bauwagen der für Wohnen und Leben zur Verfügung steht.

    Despite several major fires in 1539, 1793, and 1858, the old part of the town remains a mix of architectural elements ranging from those of the early middle ages to those of the late baroque era.

    The Oberstadtkirche St. Martin ("St Martin's Upper City Church") is one of Wangen's oldest buildings. The church was already present in the 9th century; it was renovated numerous times in the following years. It contains both Romanesque and Gothic architecture.

    The Ravensburg Gate is the city's prime landmark. It was first mentioned in 1472, but was probably changed to its current appearance in 1608. The building is decorated with Renaissance-era artwork. Similarly aged relics of the old city include the Lindau Gate and the Pfaffenturm tower.

    The local history museum, Heimatmuseum in der Eselmühle, was opened in 1974 in a former mill acquired by the city in 1969. The museum displays the original mechanisms of the mill in addition to a collections from various spans of the city's history.
