◢ 03 / Heritage

From the forest, since 1291.

Seven centuries ago, four cantons swore an oath under a forest sky. We carry that oath in cotton.

Rütli, Lake Lucerne46°57′N · 8°35′E
The Rütli Oath
Uri, Schwyz, Unterwalden — and later Lucerne — bind themselves around Lake Lucerne. The Waldstätten are born.
