General presentation
Vaduz
Small capital of Liechtenstein, between museums, princely castle, vineyards, institutional center and views of the Rhine Valley.
The discovery of Vaduz revolves around Vaduz Castle, Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein and Mitteldorf. The stay thus alternates between urban life, heritage, mountain reliefs and the countryside, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best-known site.
See all
For a stay of 1 to 2 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be expected: very compact destination and non-visitable castle inside. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Centre de Vaduz
The centre of Vaduz is located in a quiet street at the foot of the princely castle, between museums, official buildings and outdoor sculptures. The visit is brief but singular: little traffic, very visible institutions and, above the roofs, the princely residence that remains closed to the public.
Castle
Château de Vaduz
The castle of Vaduz dominates the capital and vineyards, even if it does not visit inside. The climb is especially true for views of the Rhine valley.
Museum
Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein
The Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein contrasts with the Alpine decor of Vaduz by its dark and polished volume, placed near the pedestrian streets of the centre. Inside, the collections of modern and contemporary art give a more demanding, interesting step to break with castles, panoramas and small national museums.
