Neuchâtel (English spelling)
The name of the canton (state) and its capital that make up the Swiss Confederation. In German, it is called Neuenburg. The city has a population of 32,000 (1996). Founded at the end of the 12th century by the South German House of Zähringen, it is located in western Switzerland bordering both Germany and France, and has had a history of repeated changes of rulers. Since 1707, except for a period under the Napoleonic regime (1805-14), it has been a territory of the King of Prussia. As a principality under the King of Prussia, it joined the Swiss Confederation in 1814, but the Swiss side requested that it assume a politically independent position from the Prussian state.
