 674,299 assets

In June 2019, Switzerland passed a law to protect photographs that do not satisfy the threshold of originality necessary for copyright protection. Such photographs will receive a related rights protection irrespective of their “individual design.”

The largest contributor is the Bildarchiv der ETH-Bibliothek, ETH Zürich, publishing 489,161 public domain compliant assets via its own website (or 72.5% of the total volume in Switzerland). The other 33 contribute the remaining 185,138 assets primarily via Wikimedia Commons, which accounts for 69,887 assets mostly published using CC BY-SA. No assets are published via Europeana.
