Home – Gemeinde Schenkon
Die dynamischen Gemeinde mit grosszügiger Infrastruktur und vorteilhaftem Steuersatz. Aber nicht allein der Steuerfuss oder die herrliche Aussicht, die Lage am See und der unkomplizierte Umgang miteinander vermitteln ein Gefühl der Geborgenheit. Vielmehr ist es ein täglicher erlebbarer Gemeinschaftssinn und die Gewissheit, mitgetragen zu sein.
