Postcards

A group of three postcards provide easy-to-understand information about geology.
Two of them give a simple overview of the tectonic and hydrogeological situation in Switzerland. The third card uses a compilation of two north–south geological profiles to show a vertical section through the tectonic structure of the Alps.

Below you can directly download the two postal cards “Geological Overview of Switzerland” and “Geological Cross-section Across Switzerland” in TIF format. For obtaining the postal card “Hydrogeological Overview of Switzerland”, please visit the corresponding site of the Federal Office for the Environment.
