Covered Wooden Bridge of Büren an der Aare

Highlight • Bridge

Büren an der Aare is located - as the name suggests - on the river Aare. Büren was founded in the 12th century by the Barons of Strassberg.
Only a few medieval settlements have been able to preserve their historical appearance as intact over the centuries as Büren an der Aare. There is a lot to see, including fascinating handicrafts in various studios and, of course, the famous wooden bridge.

Alte Aare River

Highlight • River

The paths along the old Aare and through the renatured floodplains is a wonderful experience. Only the more or less close motorway disturbs the mood in some places.

Alte Aare Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

The floodplain area of the Alte Aare is a nature reserve of national importance.
The pearl of water winds gently through the area and, with its ecologically extremely valuable riverbank vegetation, offers many animals and plants a habitat in and on the water. Thanks to numerous revitalization projects, the river courses with their pools, open gravel areas and oxbows offer a home to beavers, kingfishers and numerous amphibians.
