Murten/Morat
Bernstrasse (1)

Here we are at the fortified entrance of the Bern Gate (Berntor). It dates from the 18th century, the original tower having been destroyed in 1476 during the Battle of Murten, which saw the defeat of the Duke of Burgundy Charles the Conqueror by the Swiss Confederates.
