Swisttal, Municipality in Rhein-Sieg district, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Swisttal extends across 65 square kilometers, including 10 square kilometers of Kottenforst forest and 49 square kilometers of agricultural terrain.
The municipality emerged from the consolidation of multiple smaller communities in 1969, reflecting Germany's administrative restructuring initiatives during that period.
Each of the eleven parishes within Swisttal, including Heimerzheim, Buschhoven, and Ludendorf, maintains distinct local traditions and community celebrations.
The municipality connects to major transportation networks, providing direct access to Bonn, located 20 kilometers northeast, and Cologne's metropolitan region.
The remnants of the Roman Eifel Aqueduct, which transported water to ancient Cologne, run through the municipality's territory.
