Gemeindeverwaltung Horgen

On behalf of the municipal council and the municipal administration, I would like to extend a warm welcome to Horgen. The district capital of Horgen is a diverse, livable, and vibrant community with almost 25,000 residents, beautifully situated on Lake Zurich. It stretches from the lower parts of the village on the lake to the millennia-old moraine landscapes in Hirzel and up to the Albis ridge.

Horgen offers everything you need for an enjoyable and satisfying life. The diverse business community with numerous innovative SMEs, the comprehensive range of health and care services, and the nature-oriented agriculture provide many employees with a local workplace. The excellent public transport connections, the wide range of educational opportunities, and the diverse shopping options for everyday needs make living in Horgen particularly attractive.

Discover the urban living space and the forest and meadow landscapes together with family, friends, or new contacts here in the village. Whether you are a guest or a new resident, enjoy your stay and let Horgen inspire you.

Have fun getting to know our community. Below you will find the departments of the municipality of Horgen
