The Ruetli is a mountain meadow near Urnersee in Seelisberg, where the legendary oath of the Ruetlischwur first occurred. It is here that every year a reenactment of the forming of the Old Swiss Confederacy, as it is known today, happens on the Swiss National Holiday, Switzerland's day of independence.
