[2] During the war years, Gustav Wilhelm, director of the Princely Collections of Liechtenstein, moved artworks from the collection to various storage depots in remote locations, including a former Carthusian monastery called Gaming, located in Styria, in lower Austria. Toward the end of the war, Wilhelm brought much of the Princely Collections over the Liechtenstein border to Schloss Vaduz.
