118 years ago, a group of patriotic Swiss united and founded the Gruetli Verein on August 4, 1868. They named themselves the Gruetli Verein of Detroit. Detroit was then just a good-sized village with plenty of forest, wild life and farms. Its members dedicated themselves to assist each other in time of need, both materially and spiritually.
