Mainau is an island in Lake Constance near the city of Konstasnz, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany.   
It is maintained as a garden island. The island belongs to the Lennart Bernadotte Foundation, an entity created by Prince Lennart Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg and originally a Prince of Sweden. 
Frederick I, Grand Duke of Baden, created the island's arboretum.   
In 1853 Grand Duke Frederick I of Baden purchased Mainau Island as his personal property.
