The current FDP/PLR is the result of the merger of
the former FDP/PRD/PLR with the smaller LPS / PLS in 2009. This page describes
flags from before the merger.

FDP (Freisinnig-Demokratische Partei Schweiz)
PRD (Parti radical-démocratique
Suisse)
PLR (Partito liberale radicale svizzero)
(Liberal Democratic Party
of Switzerland)
This party is one of the biggest parties in Switzerland
and was particularly influential in the second half of the 19th and the first
half of the 20th century. The party has a liberal program. Currently it has 36
seats in the 200-seat lower chamber of the Swiss Parliament (Nationalrat =
National Council). Two FDP members are ministers in the federal government (Bundesrat
= Federal Council).
The flag is square and shows the party abbreviation and additional text on a
white field. In the German version the text is "Wir Liberalen" (We liberals)
[1], in the French version it is "Les Radicaux" (The radicals) [2]. I don't
know if Italian and Romansh versions exist as well.

In addition to the flag there is also a table pennant (Tischwimpel), also in German and French versions [3][4].

There are also two older flags of the FDP showing variants of the older logo.
The logo was mainly composed of a circle of alternating red and blue colour with
a white lozenge in the center; the party abbreviation "FDP" was either put in
the center of the lozenge or beside the circle-lozenge.
The first flag
variant shows the inscription "FDP" in the center (in black).

The second flag shows the inscription "FDP" at the hoist (in blue) and the
circle-lozenge device in the fly.
