The museum is located in a small hamlet with a church and a few houses between Überlingen and Friedrichshafen with a view over Lake Constance. It is surrounded by meadows with grazing cattle, fields and orchards. The museum buildings resemble a three-sided farmyard and contain a surface area of 10.000 square metres which accommodate the museum itself, the restaurant and event rooms. The inner courtyard contains a beer garden as well as some of the exhibits, and groups of visitors arrive regularly with their classic cars, tractors, motorcycles and cars.

A visit to the Traktormuseum Bodensee followed by a leisurely snack or a three-course meal in the Jägerhof restaurant is always a special experience.
