The city of Bern or Berne (German: Bern; French: Berne; Italian: Berna; Romansh: Berna; Bernese German: Bärn) is the de facto capital of Switzerland, referred to by the Swiss as their (e.g. in German) Bundesstadt, or "federal city". The bear was the heraldic animal of the seal and coat of arms of Bern from at least the 1220s. The earliest reference to the keeping of live bears in the Bärengraben dates to the 1440s.
Bern (Bern in German, Bärn in Alemannic German, Berne in French, and Berna in Italian and Romansh) is the de facto capital of Switzerland, referred to by the Swiss as their "federal city," in German Bundesstadt, French ville fédérale, and Italian città federale. With a population of about 140,000 (as of 2019), Bern is the fifth-most populous city in Switzerland. Bern is also the capital of the canton of Bern, the second-most populous of Switzerland's cantons.
The official language in Bern is (the Swiss variety of Standard) German, but the most-spoken language is an Alemannic Swiss German dialect, Bernese German.
In 1983, the historic old town (in German: Altstadt) in the center of Bern became a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The remarkably harmonious design of the Bern's old town, brimming with beautifully preserved 14th- to 16th-century architecture, has earned it a place on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The old town features four miles of pleasant arcaded walkways along streets dotted with fountains and clock-towers. Bern's 15th-century Gothic Cathedral of St. Vincent is magnificently decorated inside and its tower provides a sweeping vista of the city.
History
The first church on this site was probably a small chapel, built around the time Bern was founded (1191). Its existence is first recorded in 1224.
On March 11, 1421, master builder Matthäus Ensinger began construction on a monumental new cathedral to take its place. Ensinger hailed from Strasbourg and had already built three other cathedrals. The huge new church could accommodate large numbers of worshipers yet only 5,000 people lived in Bern at the time.
Work continued on the Münster for over a century. It was not fully completed until 1893, when the bell tower was added. In the meantime, Bern had become Protestant and the Berner Dom (cathedral) had become the Berner Münster (collegiate church).
