This 13th-century hilltop castle is storybook stuff with its red turrets and creeping vines. It’s a steep climb up to the ramparts, which command far-reaching views over Feldkirch’s rooftops. Once the seat of the counts of Montfort, the castle now houses a museum displaying religious art, costumes and weaponry.
