SWITZERLAND

The history of Switzerland begins when the cantons of Schwyz, Uri, and Unterwalden agreed on one fundamental thing: to stick together. Everything else — mountains, banks, neutrality, and perfect order — grew from this simple yet powerful decision.

The Highlights

CANTONS OF SWITZERLAND

History and Modernity

The coats of arms of the Swiss cantons were born not at court, but in the mountains. While in Europe, symbols belonged to kings and counts, the Swiss lived by the principle of "master of oneself"—even if a canton consisted of three houses on a slope. Therefore, their coats of arms are simple, honest, and often inspired by flags: two colors, minimal detail, maximum meaning. This is the heraldry of independence, perfected.
