23 medals were won by Swiss athletes at the Winter Games in northern Italy. That is eight more than the 15 medals from Calgary 1988, South Korea 2018 and Beijing 2022, which were previously the Swiss record. However, the years cannot be compared 1:1 in view of the sharp increase in competitions. 38 years ago, 47 sets of medals were awarded in Canada, 109 in 2022 and 116 in 2026.
Nevertheless, Swiss Olympic can chalk up the Milan/Cortina 2026 Games as a resounding success with six gold, nine silver and eight bronze medals. Only in terms of gold medals was it not a Swiss record Games: 2014 and 2022 saw seven gold medals, 2026 saw six, won by Franjo von Allmen (3), Loïc Meillard, Mathilde Gremaud and Marianne Fatton. This resulted in 8th place in the medal table.
With nine medals, the alpine skiers also stood out this time. In the absence of Lara Gut-Behrami, eight went to the men and Von Allmen outshone everyone with three gold medals.
In total, the Swiss men won 13 medals and the women 8, 2 of which were won in mixed competitions. In 2022, 67% of Swiss medals and four of the seven gold medals were won by women.

Norway was the most successful nation for the third time in a row, raising its own record from 16 gold medals to 18, not least thanks to Johannes Hösflot Klaebo. The USA, who won the prestigious ice hockey final against Canada on Sunday, followed with twelve gold medals. Host nation Italy came fourth with 10 gold, 6 silver and 14 bronze medals behind speed skating and short track powerhouse the Netherlands.
