2024Princely Treasures - Palaces and Castles III - First Day Cover

Three gouaches by painter Ferdinand Runk have been selected to continue our series on treasures from the Princely Collections. They all depict landscapes in which the palaces and castles of the House of Liechtenstein were located. The ruins of "Mödling Castle" (face value: CHF 1.00) are located above the Mödlingbach Valley in Lower Austria. In the 19th century, the hilltop castle was one of the largest fortifications and offered observation posts a good view.
