The famous Glockenspiel, a unique symbol of Switzerland in the heart of London, is to have a new home. It was presented to the city of Westminster in 1985 as a token of friendship, and graced the Swiss Centre dominating Leicester Square. Now that the building has been sold, the Glockenspiel will be incorporated into a new triumphal arch across Swiss Court. (swissinfo, Julie Hunt)
