Churer Tor, Feldkirch
Built before 1270, the Churer Tor was completely renewed in the course of the re-fortification of the city in 1491. A Vorwerk in front of the six-storey gate tower, built in 1591, was removed when the city ditches were leveled after 1826. The Churer Tor is the only remaining tower-like city gate in Vorarlberg today.
In the past, the Churer Tor was also called the Hewers and Salztor. The name Salztor, used after 1615, comes from the neighboring salt barn where salt from Hall was stored and which was demolished in 1905. The official apartment of the salt janitor was also located in the Churer Tor, while the gatekeeper himself lived in a small house nearby.
The important trade route to Chur once led through this gate over the Heiligkreuzbrücke, the only crossing over the Ill in Feldkirch.

Schattenburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

The historic Schattenburg
The Schattenburg towers over the city and was the seat of the Counts of Montfort until the end of the 14th century. The keep, the highest part of the Schattenburg, is a viewing platform and allows a view over the whole of Feldkirch. It is particularly interesting for castle enthusiasts, as the complex has been preserved almost unchanged despite some extensions. Here you will also find the Schattenburg Museum and an inn, which invites you to linger and is famous for its giant schnitzel.

Lake Nachbauer

Highlight • Lake

For the construction of the A14, a series of gravel pits were dug, which then filled with groundwater and became lakes. This was also the case with the Nachbauersee, which now serves as a fish pond.

The old Montforters used the narrow valley between the Rhine Valley and the Walgau to collect customs duties from traders and other travelers ... this was also the purpose of the gates ...
