Hi Musekyto! Have you found any other strange signs in Switzerland? I would love to feature them for our readers ;-)
Love that God sign – friends always get a kick out if when we’re in the area (near Bergun, GR for anyone interested)

[…] Funniest signage in Switzerland: From the blog “Newly Swissed,” these Swiss signs are hilarious and real! That said, it is good to know where naked hiking is and is not allowed. […]
Very nice! I found this one on the Bachtel (Züri Oberland):

Standing on a hill top, it does not only offer the same directions in any direction, note also the small additional pointer pointing to additional directions :-)
This is hilarious! Thanks for sharing :-) ^Dimitri
