Buy building land in the canton of Fribourg: undeveloped plots

In the canton of Fribourg, the official geodata analysed show 3'075 undeveloped plots in building zones across 117 municipalities (data retrieved 11.11.2026).

Of these, 1'770 plots carry the mark «Aerial image checked: nothing noticeable». On the evaluated aerial image (swisstopo, flight years 2023 to 2024), no building and no installation was detected on the plot (except small structures under 12 m²), and no building of 12 m² or more is recorded in the official cadastral survey (status 04.11.2026). Trees and shrubs are possible; in this evaluation, vegetation does not lead to the classification «to be clarified on site». The check is automatic, on our own infrastructure. Every plot is checked on the aerial image and in the official cadastral survey. In two randomly drawn samples of 150 plots each, separate image evaluations supported the finding in 86 to 95 % of cases, depending on the counting method (status 04.11.2026; method: bauland-scout.ch/en/methode.html). The mark is an indicative value and does not replace a site visit or information from the building authority.

Fribourg is a bilingual canton, French and German, with its capital of the same name perched above the Saane/Sarine river. The Sense and Lake districts are largely German-speaking, while the Gruyère, the Glâne and the Broye speak French. Building zones are spread across Mittelland villages, the shores of Lake Murten and the Pre-Alpine valleys. Your building land search in the canton of Fribourg is based on cadastral survey and zoning data from geodienste.ch, accurate to the plot. You can find building land among undeveloped plots identified in the official data we analyse, whether or not they are advertised. The municipal building authority explains what is permitted; the land registry office knows the owner.

The pages for individual municipalities are in German.

Official contacts: geoportal, cadastre, land registry

Bauland-Scout brings together official geodata and filters out the undeveloped building zones. It does not replace the cantonal geoportal (GIS) or the PLR cadastre: legally binding extracts, the zoning plan and certified cadastral extracts (cadastral surveyor or land registry office) are available from the official authorities.
