Dägerlen is a municipality in the district of Winterthur in the canton of Zürich in Switzerland.

==History== thumb|Aerial view from 200 m by Walter Mittelholzer (1923) Dägerlen is first mentioned in the 14th century as Tegerlo. During the 13th century, Rutschwil (first mentioned in 1219 as Ruoltswilare) was the fief of a Kyburg. It was held by a ministerialis or unfree knight in service of the Counts of Kyburg. They held extensive properties in what would become the municipality of Dägerlen. In 1264, when the Kyburg family died out, it came under the authority of the Habsburgs.
