The Village

Birmensdorf is a rather rural village near the city of Zurich. Located in the Reppich basin, the municipality connects the Limmattal with the Säuliamt. The village covers an area of 1142 hectares and is the largest municipality in the Dietikon district in terms of area. Birmensdorf is a scattered settlement and includes various neighborhoods around the old village center.

The village has a well-developed bus and S-Bahn network and is close to the highway access. Interest in living in Birmensdorf has increased significantly in recent years. This has led to increased construction activity, which has greatly changed the once rural image of the village characterized by farms.

Today, the more than 7,000 residents have plenty to do. Birmensdorf offers an exciting and varied leisure experience with a vibrant community life and several restaurants. If you prefer to spend time in nature, there are many options available as well. Forests, various biotopes, and streams or the Uetliberg are easily accessible on foot.

For shopping, the village has a Coop, and in the adjacent Uitikon, there are Coop, Migros, and Denner.
