Ruetli Festivities Mark Swiss National Holiday

LUZERN, SWITZERLAND - AUGUST 01: Visitors crowd the Ruetli meadow during the Ruetli celebrations on August 1, 2007, near Luzern, Switzerland. Every year the reenactment of the forming of the Old Swiss Confederacy is performed on the Ruetli meadow during the Swiss National Day, Switzerland's day of independence. Due to the appearance of neonazis which impeded and disturbed speeches in 2005, in the 2006 celebration strict controls were enforced, only registered people could get a ticket to the Ruetli.
