About this activity

Litera tour with poetry through Constance!

Many poets and scholars have written about and in Constance: the knight and minstrel Wolkenstein, the poets Rilke, Goethe and Schwab, the writers Scheffel, Zweig and Kisch, the medieval mystic Heinrich Suso, the French novelist Honoré de Balzac, who made Constance the scene of one of his 'brazen stories', the future Pope Pius II, the reformer Jan Hus, the humanists Leonardo Bruni and Erasmus of Rotterdam, the essayist Michel de Montaigne, even Sigmund Freud - to name but a few!

We offer you a contemplative and sensual city tour full of poetry. Follow in the footsteps of numerous poets and see the city through their eyes!

We visit places where literature originated and/or was written about in Konstanz and recite the corresponding texts.

Let yourself be enchanted by literary constancy!
