Description

Triesenberg towers high above the Rhine Valley on a sunny terrace and is the largest municipality in Liechtenstein. The roots of this charming mountain village date back to the 12th century, when the Walser people from what is now Valais settled here. The unique Walser culture is still alive today - from the language to the living traditions. A visit to Triesenberg is a journey into the past and at the same time an experience for the senses: breathtaking views, living customs and genuine hospitality await you.
