Schattenburg Feldkirch

The Middle Ages in the Schattenburg in Feldkirch - an experience for the whole family

The Schattenburg Feldkirch, the landmark of the city, was built in the 12th century. It served Hugo I from Montfort to secure the city and traffic over the passes to the south and the east and gives us today a view of the world in the early 16th century.
The castle walls, the beautiful castle tower, the ancient areas and the unique inner court provide for a unique medieval atmosphere.
