The 'History of Switzerland' exhibition depicts on 1,000 square metres how Switzerland came to be over a period of 550 years. It begins in the late Middle Ages and ends with the challenges facing democratic institutions today. The show at the Landesmuseum Zürich illustrates the journey from a confederation of states to a federal state as a struggle for identity. It also dares to examine contemporary history, which is often considered taboo for historical museums.
