Image description

Surrounded by wrestlers, referees and spectators, a strong man (name unknown) throws the Unspunnenstein on 22 September 1946 on the occasion of the Swiss Festival of Traditional Costume and Alphirten in Unspunnen near Interlaken. The first Unspunnen festival took place in 1805, not far from the Unspunnen ruins. The Unspunnenfest celebrates its 200th birthday this year. Beside the pushing of the Unspunnenstein, measuring oneself in the swinging, one dances, makes music and yodels in pretty traditional costumes.
