It is one of the few covered bridges in the canton of Fribourg. The views of the Sarine are incredible!

The Bern Bridge is the only covered wooden bridge in Fribourg. It was built in the 13th century and sawn into pieces in 1340 to block the attacking Bernese. This oldest bridge in Fribourg is listed as a protected structure of national importance in the Federal Inventory of Historic Roads. Unfortunately, it is now also heavily used by motorized traffic, requiring a complete renovation starting in 2025.
