The Old Town Hall in Lindau is one of the most striking buildings on the island city and is located in the middle of the historic old town.

A bridge with many names – Landtorbrücke, also known as Chelles-Brücke, or simply Landbrücke or Seebrücke. The locals: My grandmother, born in Lindau in 1904, and my mother, born in 1940, said that where we came from, the Landerbrücke was always called Landerbrücke! Probably dialect. I've never heard it called "Landtorbrücke." Newcomers... people who have to learn place names, might call it Landtorbrücke... I don't know...

The Landtor Bridge in Lindau connects the mainland with the island and leads over the Chelles Avenue.

The imposing neo-baroque church building from 1914, with its twin towers and mighty dome, dominates the townscape of Lindenberg and is also known as the "Cathedral of the West Allgäu" due to its size. Particularly noteworthy are the ceiling frescoes by the Lindenberg painter Paul Keck and the stained-glass windows in the side aisles, based on designs by the Munich painter Julius Exter. The church has the largest bell ringing in the Diocese of Augsburg. It is also probably the only church to feature a depiction of Jesus wearing a hat.
