Old Town of Appenzell
Highlight • Settlement
In 1870, an interior renovation was undertaken, which removed valuable old features and was generally considered a failure. Just 20 years later, in 1890, a thorough interior renovation was undertaken. This resulted in the room we see today. The choir stalls, the windows, all the ceiling paintings, chandeliers, side lamps, side altars, organ, stucco work, confessionals, and the altar table of the high altar also date from this period. The high altar structure and the frescoes on the choir walls date back to 1622. The last restoration of the nave was completed in 1969. This primarily served to preserve the existing features. The visible fusion of church and state is noteworthy. In the choir arch are the Rhod candles, which are maintained by the Rhoden and only burn on major holidays. This depiction of the banners captured during the Appenzell Wars dates from 1891. Originally, the original flags, which were saved during the village fire, were displayed above the pulpit. Damaged, they were replaced with copies. In 1822, these were moved to the armory and today hang in the local museum. It is an ancient Swiss custom to display captured standards in churches as a token of gratitude for protection granted. This is similar to the custom of placing votive images in pilgrimage churches in thanks for healing from illness or rescue from life-threatening danger.

Rhine Cycle Path (EV15) on the Swiss Side
Highlight • Cycleway
The cycle path runs away from settlements and other traffic routes. The few crossing streets are usually crossed under. There are no serviced rest areas or kiosks directly on the path where you can buy something to drink, coffee or snacks.

Old Rhine Bridge Vaduz–Sevelen
Highlight • Bridge
The Old Rhine Bridge is a covered wooden bridge that connects the communities of Vaduz and Sevelen.
In 1901 the 135 m long old Vaduz-Sevelen Rhine bridge was completed. Today it is the last remaining wooden bridge over the Rhine. There was already a wooden bridge over the Rhine here 30 years ago, but after this bridge was raised twice due to the Rhine correction, a new building became necessary.
After the dam burst in Schaan in 1927, the old Rhine bridge was raised again. The bridge is covered and was thoroughly renovated in 2009 and 2010. It is only open to non-motorized traffic and is particularly popular with cyclists.
