Art Museum
All of a sudden, right in the middle of Vaduz,
you find yourself in front of a huge black
cube. It attracts you magically. You‘re already
in the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, which
has caused a sensation ever since it opened.
Under the title of „Dialogue», the museum‘s
own collections and the artwork of
internationally renowned artists are
constantly being combined in different
ways. Rotating exhibitions attract great
attention. The world-famous paintings from
the collections of the Prince of Liechtenstein
come for seasonal visits. The café also
invites you to spend time here.

Ski Museum
You can ski in Liechtenstein all year – at

Vaduz, discover Hanni Wenzel‘s equipment
that helped her win Olympic gold in 1980.
Or many other rarities – the museum is an

of the sport to the present.

Walser Heritage Museum
In the 13th century, immigrants from Wallis
(Valais), the Walser, came to the country.
Some of them settled high above the valley
on a beautiful spot of land. Their descendents
still live there, and their language
remains a characteristic of the Walser
community of Triesenberg. Not only on a
walk through the village, but also in the
Walser Heritage Museum, you‘ll find many
testimonies of this exciting culture.
