Hohenems is a small city with grand stories. Testament to this are sites such as the stately Palace of the Counts of Ems who founded an Israelite community. Today, the lovingly renovated Jewish quarter here forms a fascinating interconnection of former residential houses, villas and public buildings such as the schoolhouse, synagogue and baths. A guided tour through this historically significant city is run by Austria Guides, who will tell you all you need to know about these days gone by. With a head full of knowledge, visitors can then treat themselves to a visit to the Fenkart Chocolate Factory where they can see chocolate being made before their eyes.
