Feldkirch, Vorarlberg

This medieval town, which remains well preserved to this day, was mentioned as a city for the first time in 1218, after Count Hugo von Montfort built the "Schattenburg", a castle which still is the major landmark of Feldkirch. Other sights in the town include the Gothic-style cathedral of St. Nikolaus. Feldkirch was the birthplace of Rheticus, and is currently the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Feldkirch. From 1651 to 1773 and from 1856 to 1979, Feldkirch was the home of the Jesuit school Stella Matutina.

March 1799 saw two clashes between the forces of the First French Republic and the Habsburg monarchy. On the 7th, Nicolas Oudinot, with 9,000 French soldiers, defeated Friedrich Freiherr von Hotze and his 6,000 Austrians. The Battle of Feldkirch occurred on 23 March, when André Masséna and 12,000 Frenchmen were beaten by Franjo Jelačić and a force of 5,500 Austrians.{{cite book|author=Smith, Digby|author-link=Digby Smith|year=1998 |title=The Napoleonic Wars Data Book |location=London |publisher=Greenhill |isbn=1-85367-276-9 |pages=146–148 }}

Feldkirch has one of the best preserved medieval townscapes of Vorarlberg. The town was built around 1200 and has a geometric grid system. Since around 1500, when the city wall was rebuilt, the city has remained unchanged over the centuries.

Since 2015, the Feldkirch Municipal Ensemble has been listed in the Austrian List of Cultural Heritage (cultural property protected by the Hague Convention). The city is also a member of the Association of Small Historic Towns, a tourism marketing association.{{Cite web|url=http://www.khs.info/en/our-tips/vorarlberg-discover-and-enjoy.html|title=Small historic towns|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160324040229/http://www.khs.info/en/our-tips/vorarlberg-discover-and-enjoy.html|archive-date=2016-03-24|url-status=dead}}

The streets of the Schlossgraben, Hirschgraben and St. Leonhardsplatz marked the former course of the city wall surrounding the Neustadt area in the 13th century. The wall was largely rebuilt around 1500, and torn down in many places beginning in 1826.{{Cite web|url=http://www.khs.info/en/towns/feldkirch/history.html|title=Local history of Feldkirch - Small historic towns|last=Salzburg|website=www.khs.info|access-date=2017-07-21}}

When Feldkirch was surrounded by a city wall and a city moat, one could enter the city only through one of its four gates. These city gates were called Bregenzertor or Nikolaustor, Bludenzertor or Schultor, Milltor or Sautor, and Churertor or Salztor. The last two gates are still standing, the other two were removed together with the city wall at the beginning of the 19th century.{{Cite web|url=http://www.khs.info/en/towns/feldkirch/sights.html|title=Sights in Feldkirch - Small historic towns|last=Salzburg|website=www.khs.info|access-date=2017-07-21}}

The Katzenturm (cat tower) or colloquially Dicker Turm (fat tower) is a defense tower built in 1507 as part of the city wall's Hirschgraben. The 8-storey round and 40 m high tower was built as part of the city fortifications under the reign of Emperor Maximilian I from 1491-1507. In the 17th century, the bell room for the Katzenturmglocke (cat tower bell) named "Maria Rochus" was built. The bell is the biggest in Vorarlberg^{(as of 2022)} and weighs 8,5 t. The tower has an image of the Virgin Mary restored by Florus Scheel in the 19th century. The origin of the name Katzenturm has not been fully clarified to this day. One theory is that it got its name from the heavy artillery that the fortified tower was equipped with at the time. These were decorated with a lion's head, popularly referred to as a "cat".{{Cite web |date=2017-11-20 |title=Städtetrip Feldkirch - Ein Erlebnistag in der Stadt mit angesagten Tipps |url=https://www.vorarlberg.travel/stadterlebnis-feldkirch/ |access-date=2022-08-21 |website=Urlaub in Vorarlberg |language=de-DE}}{{Cite web |title=Katzenturm in Österreich, Vorarlberg - alpen-guide.de |url=https://www.alpen-guide.de/reisefuehrer/poi/katzenturm-feldkirch |access-date=2022-08-21 |website=www.alpen-guide.de}}

• File:Feldkirch-Schattenburg-01.jpgSchattenburg: The Schattenburg castle was the seat of the counts of Montfort until 1390. The first construction phase began around 1230 under Hugo I of Montfort, the founder of the city. Under Count Friedrich von Toggenburg (1416–1436) and under the Vogt Hans of Königsegg extensions and transformations of the Schattenburg castle were built in the 15th century. After the counts lost their power, the castle was repeatedly put up for auction, and was even to be demolished in 1813. Since 1825 the castle has been owned by the town of Feldkirch, which at that time acquired it for 833 florins. The castle then served as barracks, and later as accommodation for the poor. The castle owes its rescue and revitalization to the Museum and Homeland Security Association for Feldkirch and the Surrounding Area which was founded in 1912. The upper floors are home to a museum of local history that attracts about 25,000 visitors annually.{{Cite web|url=http://www.schattenburg.at/de/schattenburg|title=Schattenburg-Museum Räume|website=www.schattenburg.at|language=de|access-date=2017-07-24}}
• Ruins of Tosters: The ruins of a hill castle on a hillside part of the Schellenberg, in the Feldkirch district of Tosters.
• Palais Liechtenstein: In today's form, the house was built in the Schlossergasse No. 8 after the town fire of 1697, as an office building for the prince Johann Adam Andreas of Liechtenstein in Baroque style. In 1848 it became the property of Andreas Ritter of Tschavoll, at that time Feldkirch mayor and manufacturer. The town acquired the palais in 1967 and today the building is used as an exhibition centre. It is home of the cultural council, and also the seat of the city library and the city archives.{{Cite web|url=http://www.palaisliechtenstein.at/palais/|title=Palais {{!}} Kunst Palais Liechtenstein|website=www.palaisliechtenstein.at|language=de-DE|access-date=2017-07-24|archive-date=2020-09-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200920004928/http://www.palaisliechtenstein.at/palais/|url-status=dead}}

In the 19th century the Feldkirch bourgeoisie built a number of prestigious residential buildings, most of which are still privately owned. The villas were built mostly on the Reichsstraße, mainly in the area between the Bärenkreuzung and the train station.

The Irish writer James Joyce is inextricably linked to Feldkirch. In World War I, Joyce was mistaken for a spy at the border check in Feldkirch in 1915 and almost arrested. Thanks to influential friends, he was regarded as a "friendly foreigner". The Irishman saw this event at the Feldkirch train station as fateful. Subsequently, it influenced his most important work. In the summer of 1932, the friendship with the publisher couple Maria and Eugene Jolas brought the writer back to Feldkirch, where he stayed for several weeks at the Hotel Löwen and worked on Finnegans Wake (published 1939). During this stay, Joyce himself said that Ulysses (1922) was inextricably linked to Feldkirch: "Over there, on those tracks, the fate of 'Ulysses' was decided in 1915."{{Cite web |date=2015-09-05 |title=Als die Weltliteratur nach Vorarlberg kam |url=https://themavorarlberg.at/kultur/als-die-weltliteratur-nach-vorarlberg-kam |access-date=2022-08-21 |website=thema vorarlberg |language=de}}
