Where to stay in Töss (Kreis 4) / Eichliacker

Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.

The rooms are private ones. Eichliacker was built to be lived in, its Jonas-Furrer-Strasse numbers running as the Siedlung Jonas-Furrer-Strasse and the Scheibler-Häuser im Vogelsang rather than as anything with a lobby. Töss is the district around it.

Visitors who want a desk book in Winterthur proper and come out to Kreis 4 for the estates.

About Töss (Kreis 4) / Eichliacker

What are the main landmarks in Töss (Kreis 4) / Eichliacker?

Housing is the heritage here. The Scheibler-Häuser im Vogelsang occupy a long run of house numbers on Jonas-Furrer-Strasse, and their gardens are listed with them rather than treated as leftover ground between the blocks. The Siedlung Jonas-Furrer-Strasse holds the lower numbers.

Two further addresses belong to the Siedlung «Union» im Vogelsang, which completes the Eichliacker entries on the Winterthur register.

What is the history of Töss (Kreis 4) / Eichliacker?

Eichliacker's record is a building record. Three named estates account for almost every listed address in the quarter: the Scheibler-Häuser im Vogelsang, the Siedlung Jonas-Furrer-Strasse and the Siedlung «Union» im Vogelsang, each entered house by house on the Winterthur register. Vogelsang names the ground they stand on.

Töss is the district that holds it, the fourth Winterthur has, and Eichliacker is counted inside that frame.

Where is Töss (Kreis 4) / Eichliacker?

Eichliacker spreads over rather more than a square kilometre of Töss, the fourth Winterthur district, with Jonas-Furrer-Strasse running through it.
