Reichenau is a municipality in the district of Konstanz in Baden-Württemberg in Germany. It is located partly on Reichenau Island with its famous abbey and on the northern shore of the "Untersee" section of Lake Constance. A causeway built in 1838 connects the isle with the mainland. The commune consists of the settlements "Niederzell", "Mittelzell" und "Oberzell" on the island as well as "Lindenbühl" and "Waldsiedlung" on the shore.The municipality encompasses the estates of the former Reichenau Abbey, which was secularized in 1757. Today Reichenau is characterized by the market gardening of fruits and vegetables and also known for its psychiatric hospital, established in 1913, a teaching hospital of the University of Konstanz.

Reichenau can be reached via the Bundesstraße 33 running from the Bundesautobahn 81 to Konstanz. It has also a railway station at the "Hochrheinbahn" connecting Basel and Konstanz.
