            Reichenau, Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland.

Reichenau es una isla habitada situada en el lago de Constanza (Bodensee en alemán), estado federado de Baden-Wurtemberg, Alemania. La isla se encuentra entre los lagos Gnadensee y Untersee y está unida a tierra firme por un puente de 400 metros construido en tiempos de Napoleón. Es la isla más grande de este enorme lago europeo y se encuentra en Alemania, pero por su zona sur frente a la costa Suiza del mismo, a un centenar de metros. Frente a su costa norte se halla la localidad de Radolfzell, y a menos de diez kilómetros, la ciudad de Constanza. 

Posee un monasterio benedictino fundado en 724 por Pirminius y secularizado en 1799, que fue el principal foco artístico y literario de la región durante los siglos IX-XI. En el año 2000 el monasterio de Reichenau, así como el resto de las iglesias de la isla, fueron incluidos en el Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco.

La isla aparece documentada desde los tiempos de los romanos. Importantes obras de la literatura alemana, desde la época del Minnesang (cantares de amor), se han encontrado en este monasterio. Algunas de ellas todavía se conservan en su biblioteca y otras en el museo comarcal de Baden.

Tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la mayor parte de la población de Reichenau fue desalojada durante dos meses y medio para que vivieran en ella unos 3000 presos franceses liberados del campo de concentración de Dachau en cuarentena antes de regresar a su país de origen. 

Reichenau is an inhabited island located in Lake Constance (Bodensee in German), federal state of Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. The island lies between the Gnadensee and Untersee lakes and is connected to the mainland by a 400-meter bridge built in Napoleon's time. It is the largest island in this huge European lake and is located in Germany, but in its southern area off the Swiss coast, a hundred meters away. Facing its north coast is the town of Radolfzell, and less than ten kilometers away, the city of Constance.

It has a Benedictine monastery founded in 724 by Pirminius and secularized in 1799, which was the main artistic and literary focus of the region during the 9th-11th centuries. In the year 2000 the Reichenau monastery, as well as the rest of the churches on the island, were included in the World Heritage Site by Unesco.

The island appears documented from the times of the Romans. Important works of German literature, from the time of the Minnesang (love songs), have been found in this monastery. Some of them are still kept in his library and others in the Baden county museum.

After World War II, most of the population of Reichenau was evicted for two and a half months so that some 3,000 French prisoners released from the Dachau concentration camp under quarantine lived there before returning to their country of origin.
