Museum fur Uhren und mechanische Musikinstrumente

In den historischen Räumen des Wichterheer-Gutes in Oberhofen am Thunersee sind Uhren und mechanische Musikinstrumente unterschiedlichster Machart und Epochen ausgestellt. Das mittelalterliche Rebgut war vom 13. Jahrhundert bis 1948 im Privatbesitz grosser Berner Familien. Das Haupthaus wurde 1518 errichtet und ist in seiner Substanz trotz mehrerer Umbauten im Wesentlichen erhalten geblieben.

Bernisches Historisches Museum - Einstein Museum

The Bernisches Historisches Museum is one of the most important museums of cultural history in Switzerland. The collections of archaeology, history and ethnography include approximately 500,000 objects dating from the Stone Age to the present and representing cultures from all over the world. The hydria from Graechwil, the Burgundian tapestries, the diptych from Königsfelden and a series of ethnographical objects as well as coins and medals are all internationally renowned. Besides these, other highlights of the permanent exhibitions include the spectacular Bernese sculptures, two Bernese mayoral thrones and much more. The integrated Einstein Museum offers an account of the life and work of the physicist and places it in a fascinating manner in the context of world history. Temporary exhibitions are regularly staged in the generously proportioned exhibition hall.

The museum has many floors - the 2nd floor talks about Einstein and his life history. The others included a section about Bern's importance in the 20th century, Bern in medieval times, a section about Native Americans , Egyptians and a section about old statues from the reformation era. The Einstein floor is the main attraction and goes into detail about his life. Being an avid science enthusiast, I was fairly familiar with his life, but there were lots of interesting details which I did not know. Apart from this, the museum felt like a collection of arbitrary topics. Overall can spend a few hours here especially on a rainy day.

Einstein House (Einsteinhaus)

The flat on the second floor of Kramgasse No. 49 was rented by Einstein from 1903 to 1905. It has been restored in the style of that period to reflect Einstein's crucial years in Bern. The flat is open to the public. From the main train station you get to Kramgasse No. 49, if you take the direction of "Bärengraben," walking under the right-hand arcade.
