history

The section Aarberg - Nidau ​​of today's main road 235 is part of the historical road connection (Bern -) Aarberg - Nidau ​​and almost identical to it, except in parts of the Grosse Moos until the middle of the 19th century. This road connection is part of the IVS - inventory of historical traffic routes in Switzerland - and had regular mail traffic with stagecoaches as early as the second half of the 18th century. The continuation from Aarberg to Bern was at the place of today's Hauptstrasse 236.

In 1742–1743, the Nidau ​​- Aarberg line was expanded as Kunsstrasse - formerly also known as Berner Chausée . At that time a pioneering achievement by the engineers and part of the deliberately planned road network of the then Bernese Republic .

The IVS - inventory of historical traffic routes in Switzerland - is kept by FEDRO .

The Bern - Aarberg section was rebuilt as a state road from 1851 to 1852, with a Postbus course - the first Postbus course in Switzerland - from 1906.
