history

The first building can be seen on a map from the years 1845–1865; it served as a forester's house until 2007. At the mouth of the Gäbelbach and the Aare are the buildings of the Augsburger mill, which has been located there for several centuries. Two mills existed until 1862 - a customer mill for the farmers and a commercial mill. In 1862 the Augsburger family rebuilt both of them, built the Jordenweiher and thus received higher water pressure for two turbines. The lower mill originally also comprised a farm. A housing estate was built east of it, which has changed the appearance significantly.

On October 28, 2020, after around 15 years of planning, the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Bern animal center took place. The Bernese electorate approved the construction on March 4, 2018.

Completion is planned for spring 2022.

Due to the 1955 motor sport ban in Switzerland , the track had to be closed and was then mostly dismantled.
