The Centre Männedorf: with you - for you

You come from abroad, from a English-speaking country: Welcome to The Centre Männedorf. Even if you do not have a Swiss passport, you have not only duties but also political rights. Discover with the The Centre where even foreigners can vote and speak in politics in Männedorf.

To participate is to build the village where you live. The Centre makes it easy for you to integrate into this German-speaking world on the shores of Lake Zurich. Did you know that modern Switzerland was created in 1848 by The Centre and the radicals after a civil war? So with The Centre, you will join the original, one of the founding fathers of this country.
