Already on March 20, Hereditary Prince Alois received the alumni association of the Liechtensteinisches Gymnasium at Schloss Vaduz - and no, the German word Gymnasium doesn't have anything to do with sports but instead is an academic high school. It is also the school the Hereditary Prince and his siblings attended. More information at Vaterland.
