In the exam (German)
Welche dieser Vorarlberger Gemeinden haben das Stadtrecht?
- aHohenemsHohenemsCorrect answer
- bLustenauLustenau
- cDornbirnDornbirnCorrect answer
- dSchrunsSchruns
Why?
Only five municipalities in Vorarlberg are towns: Bregenz, Dornbirn, Feldkirch, Bludenz and Hohenems, the newest (since 1983). Whether a municipality is a town does not depend on its size: Lustenau and Schruns are market towns (Marktgemeinden), even though Lustenau has a very large population.

The English translation and the explanations were made with AI; in the exam the questions are asked in German. Not an official service: no connection with the Federal Ministry of the Interior or the offices of the state governments.
