Where life is worth living.

Winterthur is the sixth-largest city in Switzerland with a population of over 100,000. But despite the recent spate of growth, it has kept its unique character and charm. It’s still easy to find your way round Winterthur, both in the city centre and in the residential quarters.

Life pulsates day and night in the city’s historic heart, but peaceful fields and forests around are always close. The quality of life in Winterthur, a city set idyllically among seven wooded hills, is hard to beat.

Winterthur’s inhabitants are fond of their city because it has everything that makes life worth living, including cultural diversity unique in Switzerland for a city this size, a wide range of education options, attractive and affordable accommodation, and a future-oriented job market. Moreover, it takes less time to get to Zurich (20 minutes by train) and to Zurich airport (15 minutes by train) than it does from one end of town to the other.
