BSB Konstanz
BSB Konstanz, Bodensee-Schiffsbetriebe GmbH, connects Constance with towns and excursion destinations around Lake Constance. Passenger vessels, ferries, and charter boats shape the lakeside setting, with wheelchair-accessible facilities for visitors.
Regular services, excursion cruises, and event trips continue a shipping tradition that began with steam navigation. The first Constance company launched the Leopold in 1831, followed by the Helvetia in 1832. After wartime disruption, regular services resumed in 1948, and the Stadtwerke Konstanz took over the business in 2002.
The fleet includes classic vessels such as the Baden and Schwaben, both recognised as cultural monuments. The Insel Mainau adds a modern detail, sailing as a large German electric catamaran since 2022. A shipyard in Friedrichshafen repairs the vessels and assembled modules for this new boat.
