Live and act

Heinrich Hueter was born on January 28, 1844 in Wilten in Tirol , a current district of Innsbruck . His father was Quirin Huter, an official at the Imperial Court of Justice, his mother Elisabeth Huter (née Kapeller). He joined the Austro-Hungarian Common Army at a young age and attended the infantry school company in Bruck an der Leitha and then the military cadet school in Marburg an der Drau . In 1866 Hueter took part in the Italian campaign as a soldier and was promoted to lieutenant , in 1873 to first lieutenant in the reserve . In 1876 Hueter resigned from the army and worked as a post office clerk at the Bregenz post office. In this function he was finally appointed court advisor.

Hueter had been a member of the German and Austrian Alpine Club since 1877 , was deputy chairman in 1880 and chairman of the Vorarlberg section of the Alpine club from 1884 to 1921. As such, numerous hiking trails and shelters were built in Vorarlberg under his guidance, and he made a special contribution to tourism. In the Rätikon , the Heinrich Hueter Hut was finally named after him. He was also a member of the German Progress Association, the Association for Charitable Purposes, the German People's Association for Vorarlberg, and the Regional Association for Tourism in Vorarlberg, of which he was also the first chairman.

Heinrich Hueter was politically active in the German People's Party , for which he was city councilor in Bregenz for the first time from 1902 to 1906 . In 1905 the Curia of the Vorarlberg Cities and the Vorarlberg Chamber of Commerce and Industry elected him to succeed the late Reichsrat member Johann Drexel . Hueter was first sworn in as a member of the House of Representatives of the Reichsrat on December 18, 1905 and remained a member of the Reichsrat until the end of the legislative period on January 30, 1907. In 1906 he was elected to the press committee, the insurance committee and the electoral reform committee, from which he resigned on October 25, 1906. The following reform of the electoral law, which was decided in autumn 1906 and brought about the general, equal, secret and direct male suffrage for Austria, subsequently cost Hueter his mandate in the Reichsrat. Although he ran for the Reichsrat election in 1907 in the Vorarlberg 1 constituency , he was unable to prevail against the candidate of the Christian Social Party , Karl Drexel .

On September 23, 1925, Heinrich Hueter was killed by a stroke in the alpine area while climbing the Hohe Freschens in the municipality of Ebnit, which was then an independent municipality (now part of the city of Dornbirn ).
