15.0313.mysteryRichard Lux of Trickum was the first person to correctly identify last edition’s mystery photo, “The harbor entrance at Lindau, Germany on Lake Constance with lighthouse and Bavarian Lion.” The photo was sent in by Ross Lenhart of Pawley’s Island, S.C.

Also recognizing the area was Ruthy Lachman Paul of Norcross, who tells us that “the entrance statue has on it the Bavarian Lion, the symbol of the City of Lindau and has existed from the year 882. It is called by Germans the ‘Bodensee.’ Here the Roman period was dominated fishing town on three islands. Its landscaped gardens and ancient buildings were built and designed in the Baroque, Gothic, Renaissance and Rococo styles.’

Bob Foreman of Grayson and Lynn Naylor of Atlanta had he right answer. Naylor also noted the Port of Lindau with its lighthouse and lion statue. Lindau is on the eastern side of Lake Constance.
