It might not be a major tourist attraction but if you're in the area it's definitely a good place to visit. After a few days of rest and relaxation in the Mountains around Feldkirch, we wanted something to do and this was great. Not that easy to get to, but lovely to walk around and see all the animals :)
2. Russian Monument

The monument itself is just a lowish pillar beside the road with a metal plaque on top, but the point isn't the monument itself. The point's what the monument commemorates - an extraordinary episode near the end of the second world war when some 500 Russian soldiers arrived in Liechtenstein and, notwithstanding Stalin's demands that they be repatriated, were given asylum.
After seeing the monument you can have a meal or a drink at the Wirtschaft zum Löwen (or Lion Tavern) just behind it. This was where the Russians first turned up (as I was told, at three o'clock in the morning!), and where initial negotiations took place.
(If you do mean to go to the Löwen, it may be wise to ring up and check it'll be open that day. (Tel +423 373 11 62.) When I went it was their day off, but according to the bus driver it's known for its excellent Käsknöpfle. Also its wine.
The monument's at the end of the bus line. It's where buses turn round to go back to Vaduz.

This is one of the more remote, lesser known mountain locations in Switzerland, resulting in a much less crowded environment and more reasonable prices. The visitors that come here are predominantly local Swiss or from the adjacent countries: Austria, Germany and Liechtenstein. You can take public transportation (train/bus combination) to Brülisau or, as we did, drive there by car. If you are lucky and get here on a really clear day, the view is fantastic: on one side you look over to the Säntis Massiv and the small Säntis Lake framed by high ridges. On the other side, you have a direct view down steep cliffs to the Rhein Valley and Lake Constance in the distance, as well as the hills and towns of Germany, Austria and the Principality of Liechtenstein.
You access this mountain by a cable car/gondola from Brülisau in the canton Inner-Appenzell, unless of course you decide to hike up to the top, which you can do both from the Rhein Valley or from Brülisau.
On top of the mountain, you can do a short stroll around the peak area, Unfortunately, this peak-walk is relatively short, but you can extend the experience by either walking down back to Brülisau or, as we did, do at least a short hike on that path and then return to the peak for the trip down in the Gondola. There is a very modern, comfortable and relatively reasonably priced (for Switzerland) revolving restaurant on the top in which we had a good meal (see separate post).
This mountain is well worth visiting, and so is the enchanting surrounding area of Appenzell with its charming villages and style of houses and farms - one of our favorite areas in Switzerland. Do not miss to taste a bite of the "Appenzeller Cheese" from the area.
6. Schadler Ceramics Workshop

4.5 based on 2 reviews
Would you like to look over the shoulders of potters and ceramics painters? Then it is worth visiting the Ceramics Workshop in Nendeln, the oldest arts and crafts operation in Liechtenstein. The workshop has manufactured earthenware dishes in small series, exclusive art ceramics, and tiled stoves since 1836. Interested visitors are invited to watch the manufacture of these treasures. Upon advance reservation, groups are guided through the entire workshop, including the tile production unit, the glazing unit, and the kiln area.

Lieber Andre, vielen herzlichen Dank an dieser Stelle für unseren 3-tägigen Skikurs mit Dir. Nachdem mein Mann nach 30 Jahren und ich nach 14 Jahren wieder Skifahren wollten, waren wir sehr gespannt wie es klappt. Dank Deines professionellen Kurses haben wir beide wieder voll Spaß am Skifahren, konnten das vorher Erlernte wieder reaktivieren und haben dazu noch richtig Fortschritte gemacht. Hinzu kommt deine sehr sympathische Persönlichkeit. Wir freuen uns jetzt schon auf nächstes Jahr und auf den Folgekurs mit Dir. Danke nochmals und viele liebe Grüße Matthias und Andrea
