Swiss National Park
Switzerland’s National Park was created in 1909 through private initiatives. When the Confederation took over, it was officially created on 1 August 1914. The park was expanded several times prior to 2000 and its precise border is estab-lished under park agreements between communes and the Swiss Confederation. The national park’s governing body is the Swiss National Park Public Trust headquartered in Bern.
