What makes us proud? Our Swiss heritage, culture, roots. Help us celebrate! The Swiss Center welcomes guests from around the world and works to promote appreciation for and awareness of Swiss heritage, culture and pride. The Swiss Center celebrates our Swiss roots and we work to make sure Swiss heritage doesn't disappear in North America. The Swiss Center is a gathering place for people to share stories and experiences formed by their enduring ties to Switzerland, around the universal themes of tradition and migration. There are more than 15,000 items in our Tritt Library and Archives. We have 100 year old colorized prints from Switzerland; sterioviews of Switzerland produced by American companies during the late 1800's to early 1900's; and antique marketing and advertising documents. Our Material Collection includes clothing, textiles, folk and and fine art.
