The PTT Archive (formerly Historical Archive and Library PTT) is the archive of the former Swiss Postal, Telegraph and Telephone Services (PTT). In 1997 the PTT was divided up into the companies of the Swiss Post (today the Swiss Post Ltd.) and the Swisscom Ltd. On behalf of these two public limited companies, the PTT Archive is being operated by the Swiss Foundation for the History of the Post and Telecommunications.[1] By obligation of Swiss archival law, the Swiss Post Ltd. and the Swisscom Ltd., being the successors of the PTT, are bound to preserve these archival holdings and make them accessible to the public. The PTT Archive is situated in Köniz near Bern and is classified as an object of national interest in the Swiss Inventory of Cultural Assets.[2]
