Often seen as a haven for people fleeing war and persecution, Switzerland has been defined by its neutrality since an officially recognized policy in 1815. However, while the nation has provided refuge to many, staying neutral amid worldwide conflict can be even harder than it sounds. During World War II, Switzerland’s neutrality was repeatedly put to the test. The country avoided direct involvement at all costs, but the proximity of battling nations led to a plethora of difficult decisions. As Nazi Germany began taking over the continent, hundreds of millions of people were fleeing their homes, crossing the border into Switzerland in hopes of safety.
