Liechtenstein's National Day

One of my Twitter friends,  Arjan Brouwer, traveled from his home in the Netherlands to Vaduz, Liechtenstein, for that country's National Day on August 15.  The Staatfeiertag is attended by members of the Princely Family including the Prince and Princess of Liechtenstein, the Hereditary Prince and Princess and other members of the family.

    Wow Great! But i have a question. Is it possible that on the Liechtenstein National day ordinary people can talk with royals ale także pictures with them?

    Sure. The liechtensteiners are a princely family, not royal. Very small country, about 37,000 people.

    The schloss doesn't look that large, from the photos anyway. Who is known to make that their residence, other than the Furst and consort?

    I had a private tour - back in 1989. It is bigger than the photo shows, as there are different wings. The Prince and Princess and the Hereditary Prince and Princess and their children live there. Nikolaus and Margaretha have their own home. Maximilian and Constantin and their families live outside the country, but one assumes there are places for them to stay
    when they visit
