Minster of St Mary and St Mark, Reichenau Island, Baden-Württemberg, Germany
This picturesque setting is from Reichenau Island, the biggest island in Lake Constance in southern Germany. In the background you can see the Minster of St Mary and St Mark, which was once the abbey church of the important Reichenau Monastery. The Monastic Island of Reichenau has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000 and is notable for its vegetable farms. One third of the island is used for agriculture, which is why it is often called the “Vegetable island”. But as you can see in this image, there’s still enough space for a wildflower meadow.
