From the history of the city and the guild Saulgau, still called Sulgen in the Middle Ages, was surrounded by a city wall in the 14th century, into which 3 gate towers were built. Source and further information: https://www.dorauszunft.de/ueber-uns/geschichte.html

One of the last remaining towers of the city wall. Worth seeing from inside and outside the city walls

Collegiate Church of St. Cornelius and Cyprian", Bad Buchau 774 - 1776 converted from a Gothic church in the style of French classicism for the noble canonesses. Josef Christian from Riedlingen created the sculptures in the church, and Andreas Brugger painted the ceiling paintings in the choir and central nave. The church patrons Cornelius and Cyprianus still refer to the Carolingian tradition today. Adelindis, revered as a Swabian folk saint, rests with her three sons in the crypt of the collegiate church.

Bachritterburg, Kanzach The history of the Bach Knights can probably be described in close unity with the genealogy of the Lords of Pflummern but also with the ruling situation in Kanzach. “Lords of Kanzach” are mentioned several times in documents from the 12th to 14th centuries. First it is Bernardus and his son Ortolfus who are named as witnesses in documents from Bishop Otto of Constance and Duke Henry of Bavaria and Saxony for the Salem monastery in 1169 and 1171. With the next mention in 1227, the Kanzach local nobility probably moved to Pflummern. Kanzach is subsequently a branch of the Pflummer family castle. In the document from 1227, Bilgerinum de Pphlumnar and his son Ortolfum de Cantza are named as witnesses. Bilgerinum (vulgo) Peregrinus, the knight from and to Pflummern (from the Chronicle of the Lords of Pflummern, Aloys von Pflummern 1795) is considered the progenitor of the Lords of Pflummern. This knight's seat was donated to the Reichenau Monastery by the then Swabian Duke Berchthold, who had his seat on the Bussen. He was later freed from this and given his own nobility. In 1180 Peregrinus was steward to Emperor Philip, the Duke of Swabia. Peregrinus is considered a co-founder of the monasteries of Salem, St. Gallen and Heiligkreuztal (written down by Father Bucelini, a well-known historian and Benedictine monk from Weingarten Abbey). After his father's death (1227), his son Ortolph also became steward (to Emperor Friedrich II).

This is really worth seeing. Too bad the tavern was closed.

Hanging garden of Neufra The historic hanging garden of Neufra The historic hanging garden is a Renaissance garden that was created between 1569 and 1573 by Count Georg von Helfenstein with 202 serfs in front of his castle as a "hanging garden" on a flat surface on a specially built extension of the natural castle hill. The garden is supported by fourteen vaults up to nine meters high. The historic garden was restored in 1988 on the private initiative of Waltraud Johannsen based on a drawing from the archives of the Princes of Fürstenberg with the help of the Monuments Office.
