AXA Winterthur Group is a multinational insurance company. The original company named Winterthur was founded in Winterthur, Switzerland, in 1875.

Due to the takeover, AXA Insurance will take over the brand name and general supervision of the company. Logo changes started to appear in Barcelona during January 2007.
