As expected, this is about... hats.

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.

On the west bank you can climb down to the lake in places. Beautiful paths and sports facilities give you the choice of many activities. For example, beach volleyball, bouldering, fitness, skateboarding and much more.

In 2018, renovation work began on the old ramparts. Access was also to be made barrier-free. However, the work was delayed after historic embankment walls were uncovered in addition to the remains of the Aurelia/Jacobus Chapel.

Imposing from the outside and relatively simple on the inside.

The town fountain by the Lindau sculptor Hermann Gierer was inaugurated in 1988. On its relief panels you can trace the history of Lindenberg from its first mention to its elevation to town status.
