Press release: Ground-breaking Burgmatt Merlischachen

Press release

Ground-breaking ceremony for 79 apartments in Merlischachen

Lucerne/Merlischachen (SZ), 2 July 2025 – Mobimo, together with future buyers and project partners, has laid the foundation stone for the Burgmatt development in Merlischachen, right on Lake Lucerne. The project will provide 79 attractive condominiums.

With the Burgmatt development, Mobimo is constructing 14 apartment buildings comprising 79 modern condominiums ranging from 1.5 to 5.5 rooms. Thanks to the gently sloping hillside location, residents will be able to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views across Lake Lucerne, Mount Rigi and Mount Pilatus. Demand has been correspondingly high, as 51 of the 79 apartments are already reserved or notarised.

Harnessing potential for sustainable energy supply

The locality of Merlischachen, also known as the “Geranium Village”, enjoys an excellent location between Küssnacht SZ (the municipality it belongs to) and Meggen in the canton of Lucerne. The 14 buildings on Burgweg will blend harmoniously into Merlischachen’s idyllic village appearance. Particularly noteworthy are the craftsmanship and elaborate colour concept for the building façades, developed by colour artist Jörg Niederberger in close collaboration with the Schwyz heritage preservation authority.

The Burgmatt project impresses with high-quality architecture and a diverse mixture of accommodation to suit every requirement and stage of life. Function, aesthetics and comfort are equally defining aspects of these homes, which is also reflected in the project’s sustainability credentials. Alongside Minergie certification, the photovoltaic installation and a modern heat pump system provide a sustainable, resource-efficient energy supply.

Property owners are expected to be able to move into their apartments in phases from the second quarter of 2026 onwards. More information about the project is available at www.burgmatt-merlischachen.ch (only in German).
