Crowded against the shores of Lake Constance by the borders of Switzerland, the medieval town of Konstanz had nowhere to grow but northward across the river.
Early Celtic dwellings here were possibly fortified by the Romans under Claudius in A.D. In the 3rd century, the fort was seized by the Germanic tribes, who later became Christianized and founded a bishop's see around A.D. In the 12th century, Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa came here to make peace with the Lombard states.
Although Konstanz never regained the political status it had in the early 16th century, it is still the economic and cultural center of the district.
