Bern [4K]

Описание: Bern is the capital of Switzerland, also known as the "Federal City". It is also the capital of the Canton of Bern. Its historical old-town is became UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.

The river Aare surrounds the city and in summer thousands of people enjoy a refreshing swim.

Its Cathedral is the tallest in Switzerland and it started in 1421. The old-town of Bern is full of stone arcades that constitute one of the longest "outdoor commercial street" in the world.

If you cross the "Kirchenfeldbrücke" you will reach a fountain just in front of the History Museum and the Einstein's Museum. The history of this fountain connects with one of the oldest International Organisations in the world.

In 1908, the delegates at the International Telegraph Conference in Lisbon approved a project to erect a monument in Bern, Switzerland, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the International Telegraph Union (ITU) in 1915. Following an international competition, a design by the Italian sculptor Giuseppe Romagnoli (1872-1966) from Bologna was selected and work began on the monument. Completion of the project was postponed due to the First World War, but the monument was finally erected and inaugurated on Saturday 16 December 1922.
