With the stairs you can go down to a very calm and beautiful spot, where you can just hear the sound of the water and relax. On the street, you will also see names – these are the names of Jewish people who asked for asylum during World War II but were sent back, and later killed

Magnifique pont qui relie la vieille ville de Berne à la fosse aux ours. Vue splendide sur l’Aar, idéal pour une promenade, prendre des photos ou simplement admirer la ville sous un autre angle. À ne pas manquer si vous visitez Berne !
