Christliches Liechtenstein – Kirchen, Kapellen und Zeichen des Glaubens (Christian Liechtenstein – Churches, Chapels and Signs of Faith)
Available only in German
The territory of today’s Principality of Liechtenstein has been shaped by Christianity for around 1,500 years. Its visible expression includes the dominant parish churches, the large and small chapels, the numerous wayside shrines, and further signs of faith along paths, on buildings, inside houses, in the fields and on mountain peaks.
This book brings together the Christian sites of Liechtenstein as they are today. Six knowledgeable authors describe them as they present themselves now and as they came to be over the course of history. The richly illustrated volume, with photographs by Josef Eberle, brings the objects vividly to life. Two contributions shed light on Christianisation and religion today.
The book is aimed at a broad audience, whether local or from further afield, well versed or simply curious. It invites the reader to visit and explore. An astonishing wealth of Christian heritage in this small country comes to light.
