  Biel/Bienne is the world capital of watchmaking and City of communication. Situated by the lakeside at the foot of the Jura mountains and at the heart of Switzerland’s Mittelland region, Biel/Bienne bids you a warm and sincere «Welcome!».

Biel´s historical background:

 Biel/Bienne -  when you arrive in this charming city, and sit in one of its street cafes, you will notice that uou are on a special part of the Earth. Here,  where the German and French leangues live side by side in harmony, lies the cradle of the Swiss watchmaking industry. Trademarks such as Swatch, Omega, Rolex, Tissot, and many others, are closely associated with the city of Biel. The small but beautiful hstoric centre,  with its gothic church (15 th century), impressive guild halls, and fountains decorated with flowers,  entice one to stroll, while restaurants brimming with character wait to greet visitors on their terraces. Leaving the historic centre, the tree-lined Seevorstadt takes us to the Strandboden, the lake and its beautiful shoreline. On the way we pass the Biel "Culture Quarter" with the Neuhaus and Schwab Museums, and the Pasquart Centre Biel/Bienne, the city of communications. The Congress Centre offers excellent facilities for major international congresses, meeting and seminars.
