Mainau, the botanical “Flower Island”, nestles like a multi-coloured jewel within the blues and greens of Lake Constance. The majestic castle complex, an outstanding example of southern Germany’s baroque style of architecture, harmonises effortlessly with one of Europe’s most beautiful botanical parks. The abundance of flowers throughout the changing seasons is complemented by sites such as the Butterfly House, palm house, and a rich cultural programme – including open-air classical concerts in the castle.
