25 min · Every 10–15 minutes (weekdays); every 20 minutes (weekends) · 05:00–00:30

Top-Attraktionen in Bern

Münster (Bern Cathedral) Free

💡 Skip the tower if you're after views—the Rosengarten is free and better. Instead, sit in the cloister garden for peace. The small museum adjacent is free with donation requested.

Bundeshaus (Federal Palace) Public Viewing Gallery Free

💡 Check the parliamentary calendar online before visiting. Off-season, the self-guided audio tour costs CHF 5 but includes the dome—worth it for the architecture.

Bärengraben (Bear Pit) Free

💡 Visit at feeding time (usually 10am and 4pm) to see keepers interact with them. Go early to avoid crowds.

Rosengarten (Rose Garden) Free

💡 Bring a picnic and sit on the benches near the terrace. The restaurant adjacent serves decent coffee, but avoid peak lunch hours when it's packed.

Zytglogge (Clock Tower) Tour

💡 Skip the interior tour unless you're obsessed with clock mechanisms—the free hourly show from the street is just as good. Arrive 5 minutes early for a good view.
