Switzerland hosted and won the first edition of the Eurovision Song Contest in Lugano, back in 1956. It remains the only Contest where competitors were invited to perform two songs instead of one.

Lys Assia triumphed with the French language song 'Refrain' but it is unknown how her second song, the German language 'Das alte Karussell', performed with jurors as the points were never revealed.

This is the official recording of the radio broadcast but no known video footage of the official Grand Final performance exists.
