Zurich pure and simple – from various perspectives

Intermediate level | secondary levels I and II

Zurich is more than just a city. It is a place people call home, a workplace, a holiday destination, poised between the idyllic and the metropolitan. What makes the city tick? What was the influence of Alfred Escher, Marie Heim-Vögtlin, or Johanna Spyri? Students will examine simple objects from everyday life as well as historical treasures to learn more about the history of the city and the canton of Zurich.
