    Government building, Vaduz
    The Liechtenstein government building is located in the government quarter in Vaduz, between the administrator's house and the parish church of St. Florin (457 m above sea level). It was built in 1903-05 according to plans by the Viennese architect Gustav Ritter von Neumann under the direction of Emil Zollinger, Zurich. Construction work and renovations took place in 1969, 1985/86 and 1991/92. The building is available to the government and its staff departments as well as the press and information office.
    A lack of space in the state offices located in different locations had made the construction project, which was expensive for Liechtenstein, necessary. The opening took place on December 28, 1905. The building, built on piled foundations and based on the style of late Renaissance palaces, had a high level of technical comfort for the time (e.g. the country's first central heating, an in-house telephone system, modern sanitary facilities).
    The representative centerpiece of the government building is the Landtag hall. Its artistic furnishings were commissioned by the sovereign Johann II by Viennese artists, namely the sculptor Josef Beyer and the painters Eduard Gerisch, Rudolf Sagmeister, Maria Schöffmann and Raimund von Stillfried. The works testify to the client's understanding of art that can be described as traditional, which is in the context of the intellectual historical trends in Vienna around 1900.

        Right in the center on Peter Kaiser Square you will find the rather impressive seat of government of the dwarf state.
        The north, west and south facades in particular are decorated with wonderful mosaics and ornaments.
        The government building can also be visited as part of a guided tour by booking in advance with My Liechtenstein Guide. There are enough parking spaces available in Vaduz.
        Alternatively, you can simply treat yourself to an ice cream from one of the ice cream parlors and enjoy the hustle and bustle.
