About Us

The Swiss Homeland Association was founded in 1930 by the Swiss Farmers` Association on behalf of the Federal Council. The aim was to market products that mountain farmers produced at home during the winter months. In November 1931, the Swiss Homeland Association was converted into a non-profit cooperative.

And today? It`s the same idea - only the Swiss Heimatwerk is more modern than ever. On the one hand because of sustainability and its basic idea, on the other hand a fresh wind is blowing through the Zurich Heimatwerke. Of course we remain true to our roots and offer Swiss artists, manufacturers and studios a platform to sell Swiss (art) crafts. Products of all kinds, from classic to modern. Typically Swiss, but interpreted artistically and modernly.

Both stores are in the best possible location, right in the heart of Zurich. The flagship store on Uraniastrasse is in a listed building right on the Limmat and the store on Bahnhofstrasse is integrated into the Swiss National Bank building, right on the lake. Incidentally, both stores are shining in new splendor.

Our stores are open Monday to Saturday. Of course, our webshop never sleeps and we ship orders worldwide.
