The Art Museum 'KunstMuseum' has an interesting collection on the ground floor and in the style of Tate Modern has a changing modern exhibition on the first floor.
The Prince's Wine Collection is available to view by a vineyard on the Northern edge of Vaduz. This is a 5 minute walk from the central square.
Excellent views of the surrounding area can be gained by taking the short walk up to the Castle which hangs above Vaduz. The walk is gentle and goes up the sdie of the hill and through the woods and emerges at the side entrance to the Castle. It is not posible to enter the grounds of the castle, but walking around the perimiter is fine. In winter it can be very slippery, so if visiting at this time it is best to wear suitable footware to avoid accidents.
A short walk towards the river will offer visitors the chance to experience some great views of the mountains surrounding the city. The old covered bridge which spans the Rhine river provides an interesting way to cross the border between Liechtenstein and Switzerland. The unpainted, weathered wooden bridge is rustic in appearance. It accommodates foot or bicycle traffic only, cars are prevented from approaching. Drives may find it tricky to pull-off. Cars on this road are headed to the Swiss Autobahn, a few hundred meters across the river directly west of the bridge. Please use care, these motorists may not tolerate the casual traveller on a busy road. There is no means to access the bridge from the west by car. The road that would appear to lead to the western end of the bridge is the aforementioned Swiss Autobahn.
From the centre of Vaduz follow Zollstrasse (towards the football stadium) until you reach the River. There are no border checks. |
