Courtyard

unsent, 1978
Courtyard of Vaduz Castle.

Although the castle is not open to tourists, glimpses inside are provided by a few postcards. This stamp is part of the "Residence Set" issued in 1978 to commemorate the 40th  anniversary of the Reign of Prince Franz Josef II.

  1. I can’t avoid calling this pretty, it seems to sum it up; an almost enchanting scene, in the true fairytale sense.

  2. Oh Oh! I have been to Liechtenstein, just to buy stamps! I wish they did have tours of the castle!
    Thank you for joining in this week.

  5. Beautiful! I'm trying not to become too enchanted by maxi cards for fear of opening up a whole new area to collect. This card is hard to resist.

  7. I like the pastel shades. It looks like a little town inside, which I suppose its what it was when originally.
