About Beundenfeld
Where to stay in Beundenfeld
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Everything starts from the chapel. Beundenfeld gives a stay one recorded sight, the Waldau chapel of 1491 to 1501, and the rest of what a visit needs has to come from the surrounding parts of Bern. Beds follow the same pattern.
You suit this district if a quiet address in the Canton de Berne with a late-medieval chapel nearby appeals more than a room among the city's sights.
About Beundenfeld
What are the main landmarks in Beundenfeld?
One chapel, and that is the list. The Waldau chapel went up between 1491 and 1501 and is the single entry the record keeps for Beundenfeld, which makes the district unusual less for what it holds than for how little of it is written down. Everything else lies outside.
A visitor who wants more than one stop will be crossing into the neighbouring parts of Bern, since nothing further inside the district is listed.
What is the history of Beundenfeld?
Late medieval work dates the district. Work on the Waldau chapel ran from 1491 to 1501, and that stretch of years is the only fixed point the record offers for anything standing in Beundenfeld. No charter survives for the quarter itself.
What the file describes is a single late-medieval building and a district name, with the centuries after 1501 left unaccounted for.
Where is Beundenfeld?
Beundenfeld is one of the districts of Bern inside the Canton de Berne, and its only recorded fixture is the Waldau chapel.
