Where quality of life is at home.

People living in Winterthur appreciate the fact that everything is close at hand. Despite its population of over 100,000, Winterthur has retained the charm of closeness. It is big enough to provide everything a city should, yet also small enough to make personal encounters commonplace.

Be it in the local shops, at the weekly market in the historic centre of town, at one of the local festivals in the suburbs or at the Albanifest, Europe’s largest annual city festival.

Houses and apartments reflect the nature of a town as a whole. Winterthur offers its own unique mix of romantic apartments in old city-centre houses, villas with park-like gardens, contemporary dwellings in formerly industrial areas and sustainable housing projects in all parts of town. Despite dynamic growth, Winterthur has never lost its human touch, with accommodation supplemented by generous green spaces, trees lining the roads, new park areas and several prize-winning squares.
