Company description and purpose of company Kantonale Verwaltung Glarus

Bronze Age (13th-9th century BC) finds are the first evidence of human presence in the Glarnerland. Archaeological finds and place names speak for the Celtic settlement (3rd century BC). The name of the valley river “Linth” is derived from the Celtic “linta”, which means the supple or snake, dragon. Remains of Roman buildings can be found on Lake Walen and Kerenzen. At the beginning of our era, the Glarnerland belongs to the province of Raetia. The first valley church was built in Glarus in the 6th century. The Alemanni immigrated around 700, but their language did not become generally accepted until the 11th century. At that time, the Glarnerland was subordinate to the Säckingen monastery. In the 13th century it came under Habsburg supremacy, which the Glarus people tried to shake off. In fact, they had a certain independence, as documented in 1282 as "the community of men from the entire Glarus valley". In 1351 they let themselves be conquered by the people of Zurich and Central Switzerland. After they repelled the Habsburgs' first attempt at recapture in 1352, they made a covenant with the Confederates and erected a last wall below Näfels, of which remains can still be seen today. After the battle of Sempach, they conquer the small town of Weesen, which is lost again in a treacherous night of murder in February 1388. At the first extensively documented rural community, they gave themselves their own statutes in 1387 and thus laid the foundation for today's democratic constitution. On April 9, 1388, in the battle of Näfels, they defeated a Habsburg army, which was several times superior, and with this victory liberated themselves from Habsburg rule. - Since then, the Näfels ride on the first Thursday in April has been a reminder of this event. In 1395 they bought themselves off from Säckingen, but paid the women's monastery an "eternal" annual rate until the fall of the 18th century. The majority of the people of Glarus were reformed before 1530. Zwingli had worked as a pastor in Glarus for ten years and dedicated his Reformation pamphlet in 1523 to “Ammann, Rat und Gmeind des Lands Glaris”. Only Näfels and Oberurnen remain with the old faith and a few other communities become equal. However, the first principles of religious freedom are not able to prevent the tensions between the denominations. At least the simultaneous relationship at the Church of Glarus survives: until the consecration of the Catholic St. Fridolins Church in 1964, both denominations use the same church; even the devastating fire of Glarus (1861) cannot change that. State authority, however, is divided. There are three rural communities: one of each of the members of the two faith groups and the common one. The courts, the military and postal services and the salt trade are also separated. Because the Reformed reject the Gregorian calendar, two calendars are even valid for a century. In 1836 the new cantonal constitution abolished this denominational division of the country. In 1799 the Glarnerland becomes a theater of war for foreign armies. The French force the Russians who advanced over the Pragel Pass and the Klöntal under General Suworow to retreat over the snow-covered Panixer Pass, which was costly. - 1200 children are moving from the starving country to other cantons where they have to find food and help. Accustomed to co-determination in the rural community since time immemorial, the Glarus workers, together with socially minded doctors and pastors, shaped social legislation in the 19th and 20th centuries. So z. For example, in 1856 factory work was banned for under 12s and in 1864 the first democratically enforced factory law was passed. It reduces the daily working time to twelve hours (1872 to eleven hours), prohibits night and child labor, prescribes occupational safety and hygiene measures and provides modest maternity protection. In 1916 the Landsgemeinde agreed to the creation of a cantonal old-age and disability insurance. This first compulsory social insurance only found an equivalent at federal level with the AHV in 1948. It is also the Glarner Landsgemeinde which, in 1925, was the first of its kind to pass the law on unemployment insurance. The factory workers' association Schwanden founded Switzerland's first consumer association in 1864. Between Lake Walen and Lake Zurich, it goes into the deeply cut valley of the Glarnerland. The mountains grow up to 1,750 meters out of the ground here. At 3,614 meters, the Tödi is the highest mountain in Eastern Switzerland. The Glarnerland, as one of the oldest cantons in Switzerland, is a holiday region of diversity. First-class offers for families go hand in hand with high-alpine hiking and touring opportunities, skiing fun in two attractive winter sports areas and lots of culture.
