Riehen, one of three municipalities in the canton of Basel-Stadt, is regarded as a particularly desirable place to live. The community has preserved its charming village feel while benefiting from close proximity to the city: Just minutes from Basel’s vibrant center and nestled among vineyards and meadows, this sought-after residential area with its grand villas and leafy parks offers a remarkably high quality of life in many different ways. Parks such as Wenkenpark and the Wiese landscape park invite you to relax and provide countless options for leisure and recreation. In Riehen, living close to nature is simply part of everyday life that is complemented by excellent local shopping as well as nearby childcare, kindergartens and schools.

With its wide range of restaurants, bistros and cafés, Riehen also shows off its culinary side. Art and culture are strongly represented with galleries, theaters and cultural associations, and are crowned by the world-renowned Fondation Beyeler.

In Riehen you can enjoy a lifestyle that is both relaxed and lively. Thanks to excellent public transportation, Basel’s city center is just as easy to reach as the neighboring regions across the border, not to mention EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg.
