History

Liechtenstein was first at the Olympic Games in 1936. They have been in most Summer Olympic Games and Winter Olympic Games since then.

Athletes from Liechtenstein have won a total of nine medals, all in alpine skiing. It is the only nation to have won all of its medals at the Winter Olympics.

The National Olympic Committee for Liechtenstein was formed in 1935.

Xaver Frick, a founding member of the country's NOC, is the only Liechtenstein athlete to have been in both the summer and winter Olympic games.[3]
