Easy Sightseeing Walk in Bern in One Day

Stroll peacefully through the city and visit the must-see sights in one day.

Start your trip in the medieval Old City of Bern, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site. See the House of Parliament and the Prison Tower, which was built as a city gatehouse in the 13th century. Next stop is the Clock Tower with its 15th-century astronomical clock, now a major tourist attraction. Pay a visit to the Einsteinhaus, a former residence of Albert Einstein which now serves as a museum, and then move to the Bern Cathedral, the tallest cathedral in Switzerland. If you haven't got enough Albert Einstein yet, stop by at the Historical Museum of Bern - part of the museum is dedicated to his life and work. Finish your day by a stroll along the river.
