Where to stay in Neufeld
How the choice of base plays out on the ground.
Neufeld covers more ground than any other quarter in this group, and the Bremgarten forest accounts for the part of it that visitors come out to, which puts the useful beds back towards central Bern. Engeried is the nearest quarter. Länggasse and Muesmatt follow, both under a kilometre away in Switzerland's federal city.

Neufeld's six and a half square kilometres take in the Bremgarten forest and the celtic quadrilateral earthwork recorded with it, so a bed here starts the walk instead of the journey out.

About Neufeld
What are the main landmarks in Neufeld?
The heritage record gives Neufeld one entry, and it covers both the Bremgarten forest and a celtic quadrilateral earthwork inside it, ground rather than architecture. No museum sits here. Neufeld's six and a half square kilometres leave room for it, far more ground than the inner Bern quarters hold.
Engeried and Muesmatt are the closest quarters to it.
What is the history of Neufeld?
The earthwork is celtic. That places the oldest feature on Neufeld's list ahead of Bern's founding in 1191, because the record marks the earthwork as celtic rather than medieval. The Bremgarten forest holds it, and the quarter name is far younger than either.
Bern's municipal scheme names it, under the Canton de Berne.
Where is Neufeld?
Engeried and Länggasse press closest to Neufeld, which spreads across six and a half square kilometres of Bern's north-western side.
