Vaduz Castle (German ''Schloß Vaduz'') is the palace and official residence of the Prince of Liechtenstein. The castle gave its name to the town of Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein, which it overlooks from an adjacent hilltop. ==History== The erstwhile owners - presumably also the builders - were the Counts of Werdenberg-Sargans. The Bergfried (keep, 12th century) and parts of the eastern side are the oldest. The tower stands on a piece of ground some 12 x 13 metres and has a wall thickness on the ground floor of up to 4 m. The original entrance lay at the courtyard side at a height of 11 metres. The chapel of St. Anna was presumably built in the Middle Ages as well. The main altar is late-Gothic. In the Swabian War of 1499, the castle was burned by the Swiss Confederacy. The western side was expanded by Count Kaspar von Hohenems (1613–1640).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Liechtenstein : The Official Tourism Site - Culture & Cuisine - Places of historical interest : Vaduz Castle )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vaduz Castle on Dickemauern.de (in German) )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ground plan of Vaduz Castle on Dickemauern.de (in German) )〕 The Princely Family of Liechtenstein acquired Vaduz Castle in 1712 when it purchased the countship of Vaduz. At this time, Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor, combined the countship with the Lordship of Schellenberg, purchased by the Liechtensteins in 1699, to form the present Principality of Liechtenstein.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.galenfrysinger.com/liechtenstein_schloss_vaduz.htm )〕 During the medieval days of the principality, the prince could have sought refuge in the castle from a potential peasant uprising.〔christopher-eger.suite101.com〕
