Switzerland (Schweiz) is a compact country, slightly smaller than the US states of New Hampshire and Vermont combined. In that small area there is a great variety of scenic and cultural attractions. On this page you’ll find links to our Switzerland photo gallery with scenic sights in this Alpine nation.

Also see more about Switzerland on our Switzerland Info page.

High-res versions of the photographs you see on this page (plus many more you don’t see) are available for use in print and electronic media at very reasonable rates. For details and purchase information, see Photos for Purchase.

Swiss PTT phone booth Bern
This photo of a Swiss PTT phone booth (Telefonzelle) in Bern in the 1980s now falls into the “historic” category. The old European and Swiss PTT (post, telephone, telegraph) systems have made way for more modern telecoms, usually privatized—in part or entirely. Swisscom is today one of Europe’s most modern telecoms. (See a larger view of this photo.)
