About Martinsturm
The Martinsturm marks Bregenz's upper town with its rounded roof. The tower is part of the old core, on streets above the lakeshore.
The building contains spaces linked to local history and an observation gallery. The walk allows you to compare the upper town with the modern neighborhoods by the water. The visit is not limited to the view: the surroundings preserve the scale of streets and buildings of the historic core.
The walk from the lower center is steep and can be done at a relaxed pace. Check the opening season of the interior spaces before climbing expecting to enter. Even when just passing by the exterior, walk around the surroundings to understand the tower's position in the old urban settlement.
