Switzerland’s banknotes are renowned for their vibrant colors and unique vertical orientation. The latest series, designed by artist Manuela Pfrunder, highlights Swiss culture and innovation through themes of time, nature, and the arts. Each denomination features a central theme like water, wind, or light, and uses a mix of detailed illustrations and cutting-edge security features.
For example, the 10-franc note showcases the country’s love for timepieces with a watch mechanism, while the 50-franc note features the Swiss Alps and images inspired by hiking and adventure. The Swiss Franc’s bold and colorful designs make it a true collector’s item.
