history

Parish Church of the Good Shepherd

Archduke Ferdinand II had a zoo with a pleasure house built in the floodplain of the Inn upstream of the city in the 16th century , in which court society could pursue its passion for hunting undisturbed. The Tiergartenstraße reminded. The former Jagdschlössl (Ferdinandeisches Lusthaus) stood where today's Powder Tower stands. The specially constructed road continues today as the Fürstenweg.

Until the 19th century the Höttinger Au was mainly used for agriculture. From the beginning of the 20th century, starting in the east, the area was densely built up, which was particularly encouraged by the construction of the university bridge in 1930/31. In 1931 the Hötting secondary school was opened on Fürstenweg.

In 1938 the Au came to Innsbruck with the incorporation of Höttings. In 1947 Innsbruck Airport moved from Reichenau to Au . In the times of housing shortage after the Second World War, construction of the Gießensiedlung began in 1948, and the Holy Year settlement west of the railway in 1950 , followed by the Good Shepherd parish center in 1969 , both at the instigation of Albert Andergassen , who was the initiator of the Tyrolean at the time Non-profit settlement cooperative peace and head of the construction company Schönere Zukunft . From 1968 to 1972 the parish center Petrus Canisius was built.
