Ruggell is the most northerly and low lying of the Liechtenstein communities/municipalities, with population of 1932 in 2007. The name is said to be from the Latin for "clearing the land." Most known for conservation areas and the historic St. Fridolin's Parish Church.

While Liechtenstein is known as a largely mountainous country, Ruggell is largely flat and is situated along the Rhine River , where the international borders with Switzerland and Austria meet.
