For over 30 years, we have been the people to contact in the event of a death.
In 1999, together with my wife Trix, I set up my own business and founded Bestattungsdienst Betschart GmbH.
In spring 2000, we had the opportunity to take over the funeral service for the lakeside communities of Vitznau, Weggis and Greppen from Hansruedi Zimmermann, Vitznau. As part of a reorganization, we took over the Eichhorn funeral home in Seewen / Schwyz and Küssnacht am Rigi in July 2003. At the same time, the name was changed to Bestattungsdienst Betschart & Eichhorn GmbH.
On January 1, 2012, we were able to take over the funeral service of Josef Betschart, (Sagerli) Muotathal, and on January 1, 2014, we were able to expand our business. On January 1, 2014, we had the opportunity to expand our area of operation even further by continuing the Ernst Schönbächler funeral service in Einsiedeln in our name.
Our funeral service today consists of a six-person, well-trained and very experienced team, which is there for you 365 days a year, around the clock. Our company has been a recognized member of the Swiss Association of Funeral Services (SVB) for several years, where we also complete our training and further education.
