Very beautiful medieval old town of Laufen with a partially preserved city wall and three gates. Running already existed as a transit point in Roman times. The medieval settlement got its name from the Birs waterfall, the "Lauffen".

Small but nice. If the municipality now introduces a traffic-free variant, even more recommendable.
