Zytglogge

  Rising above the cobbled streets of the Old Town district in Berne, Zytglogge is a historic clock tower that dates back to the 13th century. Famous for its astronomical clock and animated figurines, this UNESCO World Heritage Site previously served as a city gate and watchtower. Visitors can marvel at the intricate mechanical show that occurs every hour, revealing a parade of moving figures, including a bear and a jester. Situated on Kramgasse, it's especially beautiful during December when the Christmas market adds a festive touch to the surrounding area.
