Tremor was felt across Liechtenstein and parts of Switzerland.
No damage or injuries have been reported from earthquake in Liechtenstein. Earthquakes in Liechtenstein are rare.
A study in Liechtenstein has shown that buildings constructed during the Middle Ages ride out earthquakes better than those built to modern standards.
Liechtenstein is a doubly landlocked alpine country in Central Europe, bordered by Switzerland and Austria with the highest gross domestic product per person in the world. Liechtenstein is the smallest yet the richest (by measure of GDP per capita) German-speaking country.
