Campagne Mon Repos
The Campagne Mon Repos is a former country residence in Bern .
Sigmund Albrecht Steiger (1722–1794) had the campaign built around 1774 near the Hölziger Ofen campaign and sold it in 1779 to Robert Scipio von Lentulus . After his death, Bernhard von Graffenried (von Vallamand) bought the property, and Ludwig Jakob Güder (1773–1850) acquired it from his bankrupt estate. The campaign went from Güder to Katharina Wurstemberger nee. Schmalz, which she sold to her son-in-law Friedrich Ludwig Sinner (1773–1847), grandson of the mayor Friedrich Sinner . His descendants owned Mon Repos until it was demolished in 1955, the last owner was Rudolf von Sinner .
Parts of the rich interior are still privately owned today, in Jegenstorf Castle and owned by the Mittellöwen Society .
Today the Monreposweg is a reminder of the abandoned building.
