Orell Füssli is a Swiss printing and bookselling company, established by Christoph Froschauer in the 16th century.
At the end of the 18th century it was notable for its bookshop in Zürich. It specialized in disseminating literature of the French Enlightenment by means of written orders through the publishing house Société typographique de Neuchâtel (STN), which was known to print banned books.
From 1793 to 1794, Orell Füssli published Marianne Ehrmann's Die Einsiedlerinn aus den Alpen, the first magazine published by a woman in Switzerland.
A descendant company, Orell Füssli Filialen, still exists.
Orell Füssli has printed some of Switzerland's banknotes for the Swiss National Bank since 1911.
