My city is host of the ESAF Eidgenössisches Schwinger und Älplerfest, that takes place every 3 years in a different part of Switzerland. Its a huge traditional event. These are the last pictures form the parade.

Meanwhile we found the Schwingerkönig, the winner of the festival. Thank you for your interest, tomorrow I will move on with my normal flow of pictures.
Thanks so much for sharing the parade photos M. You picture show so much history and traditional costumes. This is so different than what we see here in NS. :)
