Zunfthaus zur Meisen

Weddings at Zunfthaus zur Meisen in Zurich

Zunfthaus zur Meisen stands on Münsterhof beside the Fraumünster and River Limmat. This historic Rococo palace operates specifically as a banquet and event venue, without a regular public à-la-carte restaurant. Couples planning a wedding in Zurich’s Old Town can choose from several rooms with a distinctive historic character.

The venue’s wedding page presents the Grosser Zunftsaal for celebrations of approximately 50 to 180 guests. Sliding doors allow the space to be adapted for smaller groups. The general room description lists a capacity of 240, which should not be confused with the specific wedding seating arrangement. Ornamental stucco ceilings and the option of dividing the hall into northern and southern sections define the setting. Rooms including Piano Nobile, Flügelzimmer and Einsiedlerzimmer offer further planning options.

The kitchen develops menus in consultation with each couple. An in-house pâtisserie can create a bespoke wedding cake, and a late-night snack can also be discussed. The team can recommend established contacts for photography, music and flowers.

Guests can arrive via Paradeplatz or Helmhaus tram stops. There is no private parking; the venue recommends public car parks. Visits should be arranged in advance. When requesting a quotation, provide the guest count, preferred rooms, schedule and space required for music or dancing so the team can propose a suitable arrangement.
