Überlingen High School is planning a new building on the school campus on Obertorstrasse. Our design envisages two intersecting structures that zone the open spaces and break areas and create a place of arrival. Inside the timber building, the clusters with learning balconies and views of the green inner courtyards offer a varied and appropriate learning landscape.

As part of the lecture series “Jung - Architecture Talks”, an invitation has been extended to Munich on 14.11.24. The motto of the evening is - Make Architecture Great Again - and Thomas Steimle will be among those giving insights into the work of Steimle Architekten.

Twenty-five “Exemplary Building” awards were presented in October for the district of Constance 2018-2024. Among the award winners was the Markolfhalle at the entrance to the village of Markelfingen in the district of Radolfzell.

On February 6, 2025 at 6 pm, the award ceremony and exhibition opening of the award-winning works will take place at the District Office of Constance.

We recommend taking a look at the architecture guide before your next vacation in Germany and exploring exciting buildings along the way. For example, our Markolfhalle, which is located in Radolfzell on Lake Constance. But there is also extraordinary architecture beyond the southwest in the Architecture Guide Germany 2025.

This guide and other architectual guides you can find on the website of DOM Publisher.

On Sunday, October 27, the Ueberlingen fire department's new east fire station was officially opened. The new building unites Deisendorf and Nußdorf and, with its optimal location on the B31, will ensure safety in the future. The fire department training tower will be completed next week and complements the simple building with its cantilevered, round roof with the tower element so typical of fire departments.
From the Lord Mayor to the fire department commander, speeches were made and now everyone is looking forward to the start of the new era of the eastern fire station.

A short break for the shell construction work - a celebratory act for everyone involved

On the right-hand side of the construction site, the shell work is in full swing, while a brass band with construction site helmets tunes up on the left-hand side. This is the picture that awaits you on the building site in Gunzenhausen on Monday morning, the day the foundation stone is laid.

The foundation stone was laid on the floor slab of the underground parking garage. A time capsule was ceremoniously filled by the Minister of State for Education and Culture, Ms. Anna Stolz. In addition to the current building plans, the daily newspaper, a coin with the current minting, the key to the former “silo” and a specially made meter stick were placed in the time capsule. The aim is to combine history and the future. Above all, Ms. Stolz emphasized that this is more than just a construction project - it is a symbol. For the schools and the future of children throughout Bavaria, the aim is to lead the way with a flagship project. To wish the project continued success, a four-leaf clover was symbolically added to the time capsule.

With this in mind, we wish the building site and the project continued good luck.

In Überlingen on Lake Constance, the fire department vehicles are slowly moving into their new building. Inside, the seminar rooms and boot washing facility are already ready for the move. The fire station tower and the outdoor facilities are still being realized. However, the clear, simple concrete structure is already nestled into the slope behind it. The formal, round canopy opens up the building with an inviting gesture and provides protection when working outside.
