How do I adjust Adjusting coordinates from a whole vector layer? in QGIS

I got a vector data layer that I need to project onto a map. When I import the layer, everything seems to work, but the layer ends up in the wrong place:   

enter image description here The

The red dot in the bottom left corner is my vector layer. it should be projected onto the map in the top right corner.

The CRS I'm using is CH1903+ / LV95 and the layer I'm importing has the same CRS. I figured out that the coordinates are almost right, apart from the fact that everything is shifted by 2'000'000 on the x and by 1'000'000 on the y axis-axis:   

enter image description here

For example, the 2 points above should be:

x=2'637'258.155, y=1'105'635.889

x=2'637'254.899, y=1'105'632.778

x=2'637'258.155, y=1'105'635.889

x=2'637'254.899, y=1'105'632.778

I figured out how to adjust the points manually with the Vertex editor. However, I have hundreds of points in this layer with that problem, so adjusting everything manually is not really a feasible way of solving my problem. Is there any way to adjust the coordinates of the whole layer? 

The only other way I can think of is to drag the layer onto the map manually, but I don't know if I can manually drag the layer preciseprecisely enough for what I need it to be...
