About Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein is one of the dwarf states of Europe, or rather a principality located on the border of Austria and Switzerland. It is a small enclave of prosperity, stability and high standard of living. In the whole country lives about 40 thousand people, in the largest city 6 thousand inhabitants. In law enforcement agencies serve only 120 employees.

Liechtenstein is situated among picturesque Alps. On the background of quiet and well-kept streets of Schaan and Vaduz mountain peaks sparkle, alpine meadows and forests are spread out. A visit to the Principality will be interesting for fans of skiing, cyclists and lovers of active holidays.

In a short period of time in Liechtenstein you can do a lot: see castles scattered among the mountains, sunbathe on comfortable beaches on the banks of the Rhine, enjoy the luxury of hotels and impeccable service.

Kathedrale St. Florin

4.5/5
882 reviews
Neo-Gothic style church built in the 19th century on the site of an old medieval church. The cathedral is dedicated to Florin Remusky, one of the local saints and patron saints. Despite the fact that the cathedral is Catholic, the exterior and interior decoration corresponds more to Protestant canons – modesty and restraint in decorating the walls, statues, lack of rich decoration and unnecessary opulence.
