This museum is even better than the art Museum in Zuich. It has the largest art collections in Switzerland. You can found Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrant, Claude Monet, Edouard Manet, Vincent Van Gough, Paul Gaugin, Paul Cezanne, Pablo Picasso, Dali, Paul Klee, Marc Chargall, Andy Warhol etc. It definitely a big feast of your eyes.

The only red stone minster we have seen so far, this beautiful cathedral set in its own square is very impressive.We have climbed many minsters, duomos and cathedrals, so found this climb relatively easy. Great views from the narrow platform. Unfortunately, we didnt realise there were other steps to go higher. Maybe next time, as there is so much to see in Basel.

If you have time enough to make a detour and wait a few minutes for the ferry, it is the most beautiful and comfortable way to cross the river Rhein. And it gives you a different perspective to see Basel.

In the square in front of the cathedral are some of the best preserved buildings in the old town of Bern. From here there is access to the observation deck above the river. Definitely worth a visit here.

Around 1200, a second outer fortification of the town was built.
Reviewed By 1945DJM - Montrose, United Kingdom
This is without doubt an impressive and historic medieval gate which was part of how the old city was fortified. Although the wall does not exist the gate looks superb.
