Interlaken Switzerland Jungfrau Mountain Swiss Alps Vintage RPPC Postcard 32349 This Real Photo Postcard depicts the Jungfrau, an individual mountain in the Bernese Alps of Switzerland, clearly identified by the printed caption on the image as “Die Jungfrau 4167 m,” noting its elevation of 4,167 meters. The photograph presents a dramatic alpine scene with massive snowfields and glaciers cascading down steep rock faces into a deep valley framed by dark, forested slopes, emphasizing the scale and rugged character of the high Alpine environment. The Jungfrau is one of the best-known peaks of the Bernese Oberland region and is part of the larger Jungfrau–Aletsch alpine area, internationally recognized for its extensive glaciers and mountain scenery. While often discussed alongside neighboring peaks such as the Eiger and Mönch, this card specifically names and depicts the Jungfrau itself rather than the broader massif as a whole. The reverse shows handwritten correspondence and Swiss postal markings, along with Swiss printing information, confirming its origin as a European mountain-view postcard. The use of German reflects the primary language of the Bernese Oberland region where the Jungfrau is located and where many alpine postcards were produced for both domestic and international visitors seeking iconic views of Switzerland’s high mountains.
