From October 5, the Swiss Pavilion will open in the House of Civil Communities, where an exhibition on Swiss clean technologies and an interactive wall presenting Switzerland will provide information about the country.
As part of the program, the Swiss-born confectioner Christoph Caflisch, the founder of the legendary Pécs confectionery, will be buried in the cemetery of Pécs, and Ambassador Jean-Francois Paroz will visit secondary schools to meet students and participate in question and answer sessions in German and French as part of the "Switzerland in your school" program.
The band Alphorn Pilatus Kriens will bring a taste of traditional Swiss music to the city, while cinema lovers will enjoy free screenings at the Apollo cinema.
On Sunday, the "Swiss Picnic" will also offer Swiss specialities, including the famous Alpine cheeses Raclette and Tete de Moine, as well as wines and products from selected Swiss companies.
