2024Wayside Shrines in Liechtenstein - First Day Cover

Wayside shrines are religious monuments that often stand along public paths or roads. They are usually dedicated to a saint whose protection and intercession the faithful pray for. One such wayside shrine, which is clearly visible from the road, is the "Barbara-Kappile" (face value: CHF 1.00) near the quarry in Liechtenstein's northernmost municipality of Ruggell.
