WELCOME TO HELVETIA,
WEST VIRGINIA

The village of Helvetia, West Virginia, USA is cradled in a tiny valley
among the Appalachian Mountains of Randolph County. On
October 15, 1869, a group of Swiss immigrants set out to find
new land for farming. After traveling over steep hills and through
heavy forests, they found an extremely isolated valley that reminded
them of their homeland in Switzerland. They called their new home
HELVETIA.
