Port Entrance

Lindau, Germany

As the harbor opens up for ships to pass, each side is guarded by a structure.
On one side is the Lindau lighthouse, standing proudly as it lights the way at night.
On the other side is a large monument with a lion on top of it. This lion looks out towards the Lake
as if it stands ready to pounce on intruders who dare to attack this peaceful town.

From this POV, Bregenz, Austria is on your left and St Gallen, Switzerland is straight ahead.
