Minecraft Server Hosting in Zurich
Zurich is the Alpine option: Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria and the corners of France, Germany and Italy that meet around them. It is also, for anyone who cares about it, a server that physically sits in Switzerland rather than in the EU.
Who sits close to Zurich
Switzerland and Austria first, then southern Germany, eastern France and northern Italy. Beyond that ring the advantage fades quickly, because central Europe is already well covered by our included German region.
Who picks Zurich
Swiss communities
A server in Switzerland for Swiss players, which is the one thing no other location on this map can offer.
Servers around the Alps
For a community that mixes Swiss, Austrian and northern Italian players, this sits in the middle of the three.

Storage in Zurich
Zurich runs NVMe storage on each of its sizes, with the space per plan in the table above. If keeping your data in Switzerland is the reason you are here, that same drive is where your world and your backups sit.
On 1 of the 4 sizes Zurich runs, the drive holds more than the same plan carries in a region that is included in the plan price:
- Starter in Zurich: 120 GB NVMe, against 80 GB SSD on the same plan elsewhere.
When another location is the better answer
For most Swiss players our included German region is already close, and it costs nothing on top of the plan. Take Zurich when being in Switzerland is the point rather than the last few milliseconds.
Questions about the Zurich location
Is it worth it over your German region?
In distance, barely. In which country your server sits, entirely. That is an honest way to put a decision that is really about the second thing.
Zurich or Vienna for Austrian players?
Vienna for the east of the country, Zurich for the west. The two are not far apart on the map.
Which sizes can I order?
The ones in the table above.
