Flags of the World - Switzerland

April 06, 2021

Switzerland’s national flag was adopted on December 12, 1889, which is one of the world’s oldest flags. The Swiss cross on a red field ultimately derives from a similar banner of the Holy Roman Empire, and thus has strong Christian connotations. The Swiss flag traditionally stands for freedom, honour and fidelity. In modern times, through association with consistent Swiss policy, the flag has also come to mean neutrality, democracy, peace and refuge.

Thanks a lot Sabrina.
