Assuming by a "European passport" you mean a passport from a country which is a member of the EU; then the answer is none. Switzerland is a member of the Schengen agreement. All EU citizens (plus those of other Schengen member countries) are free to travel to Switzerland with a valid passport or national identity card without restriction.
Where are you from? What country's passport do you have? If you're an EU or EEA citizen then you don't need a visa for travel within the European Union or the EEA (Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein). I'm from Guinea and I have Guinea passport. Then you will need a Schengen visa. You need to get it from the Spanish embassy in Guinea. The visa will be valid for all Schengen countries.

Yes. A Schengen visa allows you to travel to all 29 Schengen countries, of which both Switzerland and Italy are members.

The answer depends on your nationality, which you do not state. If you are a citizen of an EU country, you have a right to travel to and live in all EU countries. In this case there is no minimum validity required on your passport, and you can stay as long as you like. If you are not an EU citizen, then there is a mimum validity, This applies to all Schengen countries (of which Germany is one) jointly. The clock starts when you enter the first Schengen area country. You will normally be given a 90-day stamp on your passport (or visa if you need one). You must then leave the Schengen area before the 90 days are up. There is no passport control between Schengen countries. As all the countries bordering Germany are also in Schengen, there is no passport control on any of Germany's land borders.
I have never heard of this. Schengen visas are normally valid for all Schengen countries. work permits are another thing, they are normally restricted to one country. But you can then travel on holiday to any other Schengen country.
The Schengen Agreement has eliminated all border controls within the Schengen Area. The EU is a customs union and has abolished customs between members. If you are travelling between two countries which are in both the EU and Schengen, there are no border checks at all, just a sign by the side of the road. If you are travelling between two EU countries and only one is in Schengen (e.g. UK to France) there are passport checks but no customs. If you are travelling between two Schengen countries where one is not in the EU (e.g. Sweden to Norway), there are customs checks but no passport checks.
