Liechtenstein Museum #1

At the Liechtenstein Museum the Princely House of Liechtenstein, one of Europe´s oldest families of noble lineage, presents a large part of its collection of European works of baroque art (Rubens, van Dyck, Raphael, Rembrandt etc.). In the final days of the Second World War the collection has been taken to safety in Vaduz, the capital of the principality of Liechtenstein. The museum was reopened in March 2004.
