Also known as the Museum District, Kirchenfeld is home to the Bern Historical Museum, with ethnographic displays and an Einstein Museum. The Natural History Museum presents scientific research, and the Kunsthalle Bern gallery shows works by local and world artists. There are sweeping city views from Kirchenfeldbrücke bridge, and a handful of upscale Swiss restaurants, chic cafes, and bakeries dot the area.
"Eating in this loud and lively restaurant is great fun! Try the flavorsome zander fish served on Mediterranean couscous and one of the sweets, which include lemon tart and chocolate cake, displayed on the dessert trolley. At lunchtimes the restaurant is full of business people who swear by the daily set menu." - The MICHELIN Guide
