Turtmann-Unterems

Turtmann-Unterems lies along the Rhône valley in Valais, where the broad valley floor meets steep, sun-facing slopes below the Alpine highlands. The municipality brings together Turtmann on the valley plain and Unterems above it, linking settlement, farmland and mountain terrain within one compact commune. The nearby Turtmanntal extends south into a high Alpine side valley, while the Rhône remains the region’s central watercourse and transport corridor. Turtmann is also known for its former Swiss military airfield, recalling this part of Valais’s strategic aviation role. Formed in 2013 through the merger of Turtmann and Unterems, the municipality reflects the close relationship between valley communities and the mountains.
