National Museum of Liechtenstein

The National Museum of Liechtenstein is located in Vaduz, the capital of the Principality of Liechtenstein, and was founded in 1953. The National Museum of Liechtenstein holds a collection of medieval weapons, ceramics, carpets, furniture and one and a half thousand paintings by Flemish artists from the collection of the princes of Liechtenstein.

The creation of a museum highlighting the history and traditions of the Principality of Liechtenstein was initiated by Prince Johann II. The exposition of the museum is devoted to the history, geography and biosphere of this state. In November 2003, after restoration work, the museum was reopened to visitors. After the reconstruction, a whole museum complex appeared, which included two old buildings and a new building, a traditional wooden alpine house in the commune of Schellenberg and the Liechtenstein Post Museum. The exposition of the museum consists of archaeological exhibits, artifacts from the medieval period. Also in the exhibition halls of the museum you can see ancient folios, stamps, coins, photographs and products of artisans, achievements of the new time, and much more.

The museum has permanent exhibitions on the cultural and natural history of Liechtenstein, as well as special exhibitions.
