Bezau is a town in the Bregenzerwald, Vorarlberg, Austria, part of the district Bregenz. As of 2002 it has a population of 1,926. Bezau is a popular tourist destination around the year, due to its vicinity to ski resorts and hiking trails. Its pittoresque church was built in 1906 and is devoted to St. Jodok.
