Füssen is in the Allgäu region , in the south of Swabia . The city is 33 km as the crow flies from Kempten (Allgäu) and 91 km from Munich . In the east, the city and the surrounding area are bordered by the Ammergau Alps , in the south by the Allgäu Alps and the Lechtal Alps , in the west by the Weißensee and in the north by the Hopfensee and Forggensee . The Lech, which rises in the Lechquellengebirge and flows into the Danube at Rain, flows through the city . This tributary of the Danube first passes the Lechfall on the southern outskirts of the city, near the border with Tyrol , then flows through the city and on to the northeastern Forggensee. Also in the area of the city are Hopfensee, Weißensee, Alatsee , Eschacher Weiher and Wiedemannweiher. The Obersee and Mittersee are located on the Faulenbach, which drains the Alatsee towards the Lech.

The lowest point of the terrain is approx. 775 m above sea level. NHN (Forggensee), the highest at 1288 m above sea level. NHN (Salober).
geology
The core city of Füssen itself is geologically in the settlement zone. To the north of the city flysch , gravel and boggy or boggy terrain can often be found, to the south, on the other hand, Jura-limestone alpine, Wetterstein limestone, main dolomite and also gravel. There is also a high proportion of chalk-limestone alpine in the east. The Lechfall from Füssen is also very important. It originated in the Würm glacial period and formed after the Lech glacier retreated. At that time, together with the melting of the ice masses, a large lake formed in the Lech and Vilstal valleys, which reached as far as Pfronten (approximately at the level of the Pfrontener See). This basin, which was bordered to the north by a ridge of Wetterstein limestone, filled like a bathtub. The overflow was at the lowest point of the pool edge, at today's Lechfall. The amount of water fell up to 100 meters and poured into the then existing Füssener See. Only after the Lech had dug a passage through the Wetterstein limestone at this point and deepened it more and more, the water could slowly flow away to the north, and this original lake gradually fell dry. In addition, the Lech Gorge is the only one in the entire Bavarian Alpine region through which a larger Alpine river can still flow freely and unhindered by human hands.

history
Füssen's roots go back to Roman times . The place developed on the Roman road Via Claudia Augusta leading from northern Italy to Augsburg , which Emperor Claudius had built around 50 AD. Excavations on the Füssener Schlossberg left the foundations of a late Roman fort from the 4th / 5th centuries. Century. According to the Notitia Dignitatum , a division of the legio III Italica was stationed here around 400 AD . Presumably, however, there was a Roman military camp at this strategically important location before the year 260. His name Foetibus / Foetes is understood as the Latinization of the Germanic fot (foot) and could refer to the location at the foot of the mountains. From this later the name of the place developed via Fozen (1147), Fozin (1188), Fuozzen (1206), Füzzen (1366) to today's Füssen (from 1424). An alternative explanation of the origin of the name, albeit a later reinterpretation, is from the Latin fauces (gorge, access, bottleneck) with reference to the Lech gorge.
In the later 5th century the Roman fort was cleared. In 748 Magnus , a missionary from St. Gallen who was later recognized as a saint , is said to have set up a cell on site. With the arrival of more monks, the Benedictine monastery of St. Mang , named after him, was built in the eighth century and was subordinate to the Augsburg bishops. At the same time, a Frankish royal court was probably established next to it . Füssen was an economic transshipment point between southern and northern Europe, because the Lech became navigable after the Lech Falls near Füssen and the cargo was reloaded here by the pack horses of the Via Claudia Augusta crossing the Alps . The route gained importance as a salt road in the Middle Ages.
The Bailiwick over the Bishopric of Augsburg was initially from the Guelph exercised, but from 1191 as a result of a sales agreement of Guelph Erbgüter the Staufer . After the death of the last Staufer Konradin , who was executed in Naples in 1268, the Duchy of Swabia fell back to the Empire, while the Bailiwick became an object of dispute between the bishops of Augsburg and the dukes of Bavaria over the Augsburg bishopric. Konradin had illegally pledged the bailiwick to his uncle, the Bavarian duke, in 1266 and 1267. Duke Ludwig II tried to secure his claims on the Füssen area by building a castle above the monastery, the high castle . Konradin's stepfather, Count Meinhard II from Tyrol , also announced his claims by having Falkenstein Castle built on the border near Füssen in 1270 .
In 1292, after violent disputes, a settlement was reached in which the duke renounced the Füssen Castle and the expansion of other fortifications in the region. In 1313, Emperor Heinrich VII pledged the bailiwick of the bishopric's property to Bishop Friedrich I. In 1322, the bishopric acquired the castle hill on a barter route and made the fortress the seat of the Füssen maintenance office. In 1363 the castle was already integrated into the city fortifications . In the years from 1486, under Bishop Friedrich II. Von Zollern, an extensive renovation and expansion of the care castle took place, which defines the image of the high castle to this day.
In the meantime, a settlement had developed down on the Lech, which in the 13th century finally reached the size of a handsome town, at that time the largest in the Allgäu . It is assumed that the city has had town charter since 1286 and 1294, respectively. Emperor Heinrich VII pledged the area and place in 1313 to the bishop of Augsburg for a debt of 400 marks silver. The pledge was never released, but accepted in its existence by the imperial successors in 1314 ( Friedrich der Schöne ) and 1322 ( Ludwig the Bavarian ). With the transfer of full jurisdiction by Emperor Karl IV to the bishopric and diocese of Augsburg , the area of the Imperial Bailiwick of Füssen finally became the property of the princely shepherd.
From 1486 to 1505, the Augsburg prince-bishops expanded the Gothic Füssen Castle into a high castle , which towers over the medieval city and was used as the summer residence of the church princes. During the Schmalkaldic War , Catholic Füssen was occupied on July 10, 1546 by a troop from the Upper German cities under the Protestant mercenary leader Sebastian Schertlin von Burtenbach . The current monastery church was built between 1701 and 1726.
Füssen experienced its heyday in the early 16th century, when Emperor Maximilian I and his court stayed in Füssen almost 40 times. The destruction of the Thirty Years War meant a deep turning point for the Füssen trading center, from which it recovered only very slowly.
Michel de Montaigne rode with his retinue from Bordeaux in 1580 ... to Wangen, Isny, Kempten, Pfronten, Füssen, flowed over the Lech to Schongau, Landsberg, Augsburg - then rode over Munich, Innsbruck towards Rome. He writes in the diary at Füssen: “For lunch we came to Füssen, a mile away, a small town belonging to the Bishop of Augsburg; there we met many people from the retinue of the Archduke of Austria, who was staying nearby in a castle with the Duke of Bavaria. I was put on a so-called raft with our luggage ... "" Charlemagne gave the monastery rich presents, of which an inscription in the monastery also says ... "
On April 22, 1745, the place briefly gained national importance. In the Peace of Füssen , Bavaria's Elector Maximilian III. Joseph renounced previously asserted Austrian inheritance claims and thus sealed the end of attempted Bavarian great power politics. Bavaria had now withdrawn from the War of the Austrian Succession , initiated by his father, Emperor Karl VII. Albrecht . On May 6, 1782, Pope Pius VI stayed the night . , coming from Augsburg , in the High Castle on his return journey from Vienna to Rome . As a result of secularization , Füssen became part of the Electorate of Bavaria after the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss 1803 . Exceptions were the Franciscan monastery , which remained with the German Order in 1803 and was ceded to Bavaria in 1805, and St. Mang, which fell to the Princely House of Oettingen-Wallerstein and only came to Bavaria in 1806. Until the regional reform of 1972, Füssen was the district town of the Füssen district . Füssen gained special importance between the 15th and 18th centuries with the special craft of lute makers and violin makers that settled here . Füssen is considered to be the cradle of commercially operated lute making in Europe. In 1562 the first lute maker guild in Europe was founded here.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe crossed Füssen on October 20, 1790 on his second trip to Italy with the destination Venice from Stötten am Auerberg, where he spent the night, and arrived in Füssen via the still passable route of the Via Claudia Augusta.
Füssen survived the Second World War almost undamaged, with the exception of the Lech Bridge being blown up in the last days of the war by its own troops, which also damaged neighboring houses.
Today the region around Füssen is a tourist stronghold, known as Königswinkel . The royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau are in the immediate vicinity . Füssen also became known beyond the borders of Germany through the national and international successes of the local ice hockey club EV Füssen .

Coat of arms and city logo
|
|
Blazon : "Threeblack feet setin a three-pass ingold." |
| Founding of the coat of arms: The history of this coat of arms goes back to the 12th century. In 1222 a protection privilege was granted for the monastery and the expansion of the Staufer bailiwick of Füssen was started. In the first half of the 13th century the city was assumed to be elevated , although this has never been officially confirmed. At the end of the 12th century, the name Füssen first appeared as Fuzin, Fießen or Fuessen and was intended to represent the location at the foot of the mountains. Removed from it so the individual feet in the coat of arms are talking for the place name. From 1295 onwards, seals are also accepted , but there is no confirmation. In addition, the first surviving impression with the inscription "SIGILLVM CIVIVM DE FVZEN" and the feet shown came from 1317. This graphic remained essentially unchanged until the 19th century . All colors also remained as they were and only appeared sporadically with silver, red or blue. In 1818 the government wanted the feet to be in a more “decent” position. The coat of arms was changed so that the Bavarian diamonds could be seen in the divided shield above and three black feet in gold next to each other below. The shield showed a lying, facing lion with helmet covers on both sides. In 1842 King Ludwig I approved the re-acceptance of the old coat of arms. Various heraldic legends entwine around the meaning of the coat of arms. |
The city logo contains Neuschwanstein Castle in the background and in front of it the words “Füssen im Allgäu”.
