A beautiful and striking building. The huge arches that can pass through large vehicles at the bottom occupy half of the street; the four-story exterior wall, with a gold-pointed Swiss clock; the top of the spiky towers straight into the clouds. The prison was originally built as a prison for prisoners, so it was called the "jail tower". When the Bern city was expanded, it became the west gate of the old city. After a large renovation in 1979, it was used as a place for office and exhibitions. On the outside of the tower is a small square, and the Anna-Sail fountain is set up in the center of the square. People come and go, very lively. The prison tower is the only way to visit the old city. Cross the tower eastward, you can watch the clock tower in turn~ Einstein's former residence~ Xiongyuan~ Rose Garden~

It looks more like a bell tower. We walked across the bridge from the hotel in the new district. The first thing we can see is this spire building. Also, the street tram on the central axis where the crossroads are located is unusually busy. It is the hottest in this small city. A noisy area, right?

Very close to the train station, it is a building in the heart of Bern's Old Town. Originally used as a prison, it is now a famous attraction building

It has been renovated here. It is a place to hold political-themed exhibitions and activities. It is iconic and has local characteristics. In the central location, there are many people around, and they are all turning.

The prison tower was once the old gateway of Bern, and it used to be the prison. Now the biggest function should be the annual carnival start-up ceremony around here. It is the heart and symbol of the city in the true sense of Bern.
