Good to know: Christmas tree

Are you staying in town over the holidays? Are you looking for the'real deal' fir Christmas tree? Here are the best places to get one.

From Zurich's forests

The city offers Christmas trees straight from the city's own forests. Selling points are Forstgarten Albisgüetli (from 26th November), Stadtgärtnerei (from 14th December), and Werkhof Höngerberg (from 18th December) . At the first and last you can even cut your own tree on the 16th December.

Supermarkets

Coop & Migros, the two main supermarkets in Switzerland, sell FCS certified spruce trees.

Rent a tree

If you don't want to cut a tree, then you might like «Traumbaum»: They deliver the tree in a pot a few days before the holidays and pick it up again to replant the tree.

The Singing Tree

A little bit off topic, but a nice Zurich tradition is the Singing Tree at Bahnhofstrasse. Until 23rd December various choirs will sing Christmas songs at Werdmühleplatz.

I am your mouthpiece for your city and am always independent. A small financial contribution would make my day and allow me to provide more independent content.
