“Beware, lest this very spot where we are now encamped get its name from the calamity that shall befall your army and transmit the memory of it to your children’s children!”
Bold words, spoken by the chief of a small, almost forgotten tribe to none other than Julius Caesar.
It was with such a declaration that Divico, chief of the Tigurini, sealed his fate and that of his people in life, eternalising them all into legend!
Let's go meet the ancestors of modern Swiss people, who chose to die free rather than live under someone else's rule.
