Consilium Sculpture: A Monument to Liechtenstein's Constitution

The Consilium sculpture, created by Liechtenstein artist Heinz P. Nitzsche, stands as a monument to the centennial of the country's constitution. Unveiled on October 5, 2021, the sculpture is located on Peter-Kaiser-Platz in Vaduz, within the government district. This location places it near the Landtag (Parliament) and Government Building, with a view of Vaduz Castle. The sculpture depicts people in consultation, establishing the basis for their communal existence. It symbolizes the enactment of the Liechtenstein constitution of 1921, representing the principles of sustainability and history. Nitzsche, born in 1954 and raised in Vaduz, is an architect, sculptor, and painter. His work has been featured in galleries and exhibitions across Europe and at international art fairs. Vaduz itself offers a blend of historic landmarks and modern attractions. Vaduz Castle, perched high above the city, is a prominent symbol of Liechtenstein. The Red House, with its distinctive tower, is another notable landmark. Visitors can explore museums such as the Liechtenstein National Museum and the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein.
