With 17 000 residents, Muttenz is the third largest community in the canton of Basel-Land and borders directly on the city of Basel. Due to its over 14 000 employment positions, Muttenz is the most significant work and business location in the canton Basel-Land. Muttenz is also the regional school and education centre: all institutions, from nursery schools right through to universities, are represented.

Despite the transformation from farm village to attractive residential, educational and work place, the centuries old historic image prevails and harmonises perfectly with modern life standards. Cultural attractions are found in two local museums, the cantonal “Kunsthaus” (Art Museum) with contemporary art, and the “Kirche St. Arbogast”, Switzerland’s only remaining fortified church where the church yard is surrounded by a wall with pinnacles and gate towers.
