Hi Adrian,
the data are in CH1903/LV03 that correspond to the EPSG:21781.
The .prj produced with ArcMap is somehow not compatible with the right EPSG.
I usually create my location with that EPSG code, and then import with
the override projection flag.
See below the WTK differences from ESRI

As Helmut points out, the e00 files say instead that the data is in an oblique
projection in meters, and looking at the shapefile data it does not look like
they are in CH1903/EPSG:4149 coordinates, despite the metadata saying
Hello,
The EPSG for your data (coordinates y in the range 60 and x in the 20)
is EPSG:21781

This is the old legal system, still widely used
The other system used in Switzerland is (new, but hardly used) is
CH1903+ / LV95
