Ruggell Rhine Embankment

Highlight • Cycleway

Cycling is recommended on both sides of the Rhine. The cycle path in the Principality of Liechtenstein is further away from the motorway and therefore considerably quieter.

Ruggell Parish Church
The Roman Catholic parish church in Ruggell is dedicated to St. Fridolin.
Northwest of today's church, a chapel was built between 1614 and 1617 and dedicated to St. Fridolin in 1617. This chapel was enlarged in 1668 and consecrated again in 1674. In 1851 the nave was lengthened. In 1874, Ruggell became an independent parish by being removed from the parish of Bendern. The chapel was a simple functional building with a single-nave nave and a recessed choir. This chapel was demolished in 1900 and 1901. Four wooden sculptures from this chapel, which were created around 1500, are now in the Zurich State Museum. Today's parish church was built between 1897 and 1902 according to plans by Gustav Ritter von Neumann from Vienna and consecrated in 1911. 60% of the construction costs were borne by Prince Johann II. In 1962 a renovation took place. In the course of this, the decorative painting by Florus Scheel from Feldkirch was removed. In 1999 a new altar was consecrated and the church was extended according to plans by the Vaduz architects Bargetze and Partner. The sanctuary was redesigned by Georg Malin.

Liechtenstein Canal

Highlight • River

Liechtenstein inland canal
The Liechtenstein Inland Canal is a body of water artificially created between 1931 and 1943, an inland canal, in the Principality of Liechtenstein.
The inland canal runs parallel to the Alpenrhein and takes in the water from twelve Alpine streams. In Ruggell, the inland canal flows into the Rhine. The inland canal is 23 km long and has a catchment area of 115 square kilometers. The inland canal is used for flood protection and drainage of Liechtenstein. After completion, large areas along the Rhine could be used intensively and profitably. Industrial areas developed along the Rhine. The canal was renatured in the early 1990s and now serves as a breeding area for e.g. for the kingfisher.
