The park area is situated in the municipality of Rüschlikon on the northern Zimmerberg plateau in the Canton of Zürich overlooking Zürichsee and the Sihl Valley.
The donor's intentions were realised by turning the estate into the «Im Grüene» Park (known locally as «Dutti-Park»).
[2] The construction works for the park area and of the so-called Strohhaus building started in 1933 as the private estate of the Duttweiler Institute.
[3] On 8 June 1962 Gottlieb Duttweiler died, and a permanent Dutti exhibition at the popular straw house (German: Strohhaus') was established.
[4] The large lawns and the vast children's playground also attracts during the summer months puppet shows, donkey rides, a toy train and a water feature.
