On 18 January 1699, Prince Johann Adam Andreas von und zu Liechtenstein bought the immediate dominion of Schellenberg from the highly indebted Counts of Hohenems for 115,000 florins. On the occasion of the 300th anniversary, the Liechtenstein Institute published the purchase contract with all appendices and thus made this extensive contract accessible to the public in its entirety for the first time. 

 

Edited by Claudius Gurt, the publication also contains the purchase contract as a facsimile.
