Description

Schloss Syrgenstein, also called Sürgenstein, is the only surviving castle-palace in the district of Lindau (Bodensee). It lies on the northern edge of the municipal area of Heimenkirch and stands on a Nagelfluh rock above the left bank of the Obere Argen opposite Eglofs. Schloss Syrgenstein belongs municipally to Heimenkirch, postally to Argenbühl and, for (Catholic) church purposes, to Maria-Thann.
