Stella Matutina, Jesuit convent and school in Feldkirch, Austria

The Stella Matutina building stands as a three-story educational structure with traditional architectural elements, housing the Vorarlberg State Conservatory for musical education.

Established in 1856 under Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria, this Jesuit institution operated until 1979, with interruptions during World War II from 1938 to 1946.

Students from multiple countries, including Hungary, Poland, Italy, Croatia, Germany, France, England, Switzerland, and the United States, received education in Latin at this institution.

The former school building at Reichenfeldgasse 9 contains an indoor swimming pool from 1912, which was the first of its type in Austria-Hungary.

English students at Stella Matutina introduced soccer to Austria, initially played on wooden stilts until injuries led to adoption of regular soccer rules.
