Singen, Industrial municipality near Swiss border in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Located at 429 meters above sea level, Singen stands as a central hub in the Hegau region with the prominent volcanic stub of Hohentwiel.

The area's first documented mention dates to 787, when the St. Gallen monastery maintained properties in what was then called Sisinga.

The Archaeological Hegau Museum and Singen Art Museum display regional artifacts and contemporary works, representing the town's dedication to preserving local heritage.

The weekly market at Herz-Jesu-Platz provides residents with fresh products from the Hegau region throughout all seasons of the year.

During World War II, the Singen route became a critical escape path for prisoners seeking refuge in Switzerland through the German-Swiss border.
