history

The place name goes back to Romansh cuntschier , documented in 1380, meaning a damp settlement in the Au . Originally there was only a scattered settlement a little higher on the mountain edge and was only built on the plain in the post-war period, when the Fritzentobel was elaborately built. From 1949 to 1950, Vorarlberger Illwerke constructed the first ten houses in the Kaltenbrunnen housing estate, and by 1952 another 15 buildings, including a fire station. In 1958, a new elementary school with a kindergarten and until 1964 the Gantschier parish exposition church was built. The music house followed in 1973, and later a building of the spark guild next to it. In addition to the music house, a polytechnic school was also built, which is used by students from several communities in the valley. Today the place has over 150 buildings. In 2013 the parish exposition was elevated to the 126th parish of the diocese of Feldkirch and at the same time the new organ was inaugurated.
