Feldbach

Feldbach sits on the eastern shore of Lake Zurich in Switzerland’s canton of Zurich, where the lake narrows toward the Rapperswil causeway and the cultivated slopes of the Zürich Oberland rise inland. The lakeside locality belongs to the municipality of Hombrechtikon and lies on the route between Zurich and the Obersee, the lake’s upper basin. Its best-known historic site is the former Cistercian convent of Feldbach, founded in 1253, a reminder of the area’s medieval religious life. Lake Zurich has long connected settlements around its banks, and Feldbach’s rail links place it within the wider Zurich metropolitan area.
