Villette is a common Bernese quarter in the III district Mattenhof-Weissenbühl and the statistical district 15 Monbijou . It borders on the common quarters of the Children's Clinic / Women's Hospital , SBB Depot / Welle and the common Monbijou quarter .

In 2019, the population is 247, of which 182 are Swiss and 65 are foreigners.

Since the middle of the 19th century, Villette was used as a green space and later as suburban living space to separate City West and Inselspital. In the 1970s the area was threatened by development projects. The population, the Bernese Heimatschutz and the city of Bern have drawn up special building regulations and a tree protection plan. The "Villette planning" was accepted by the people in 1979/80 and some classicist villas were preserved and the appearance of the quarter could be retained through appropriate new buildings.

The Remise Theater in Bern has its venue there. There are mainly commercial buildings in the quarter. The regional court of Bern-Mittelland and the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) are located there. In the southeast is the Kocherpark with the house of the university.
