Description

Bregenz District spreads across varied landscapes, from Lake Constance shores to wooded hills and mountain areas. The area includes about 40 municipalities of different sizes, from the lively Bregenz center to quiet villages in the hinterland.

History

The district originated as an administrative unit during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and shaped the regional structure of this western area. This organizational form persists today and provides the foundation for managing the region.

Culture

The district blends Austrian and Swiss traditions in everyday life across its villages and small towns. At the borders, encounters between different cultures shape local customs and celebrations that visitors can experience.

The district is well-connected and can be explored by various means, from buses to cycling routes that pass through villages and along the lake. Those visiting multiple towns will find lodging and services available throughout the area.
