History

Hermetschwil-Staffeln is first mentioned in 1064 as Hermenswil. In 1390 it was mentioned as Hermeczwil. The village grew up around Hermetschwil Convent. While the region was under Austrian control, the village was under the authority of the town of Muri. Muri Abbey owned farms, a tavern, the mill, the ferry and the parish church in Hermetschwil. The low court was under the abbot of Muri Abbey, while the high court was under Habsburg control until 1415. After the conquest of Aargau by Bern, Hermetschwil was part of the independent Krummamt.

The Convent church always served as a parish church. In 1878 the Convent was dissolved and the Convent's farm became the orphanage of St. Benedict.

For most of its history Hermetschwil-Staffeln was a quiet farming village. In the 1960s it became part of the agglomeration of Zurich and the population increased. By the 1980s a number of new housing developments were built for the growing population.
