Liechtenstein has issued its own postage stamps since 1912 and used them as a primary vehicle for cultural expression and international identity. The Postal Museum in Vaduz holds the complete archive, original stamp artwork, and printing equipment documenting this history. More interesting than it sounds: the museum is a window into how a principality of 37,000 people projects sovereignty through design. On Städtle, the main pedestrian street; check landesmuseum.li for current hours.
