The 'Zürcher Oberland' (Zürich highlands) is the hilly south-eastern part of the
Canton of Zürich, bordering on the
Toggenburg, including the disctricts of
Uster,
Hinwil,
Pfäffikon as well as the
Tösstal as far as the district of
Winterthur. The territory gradually fell under the control of the city of
Zürich from
1408 to
1452. In the 18th century, the jurisdiction lay with the reeve of
Grüningen for the southern part, and with the reeve of
Kyburg for the northern part together with most of the
Zürcher Unterland.
