Murten/Morat
Berntor (1)

The Bern Gate, which controls the eastern entrance to the town, was first mentioned in 1239 but was completely destroyed during the Battle of Murten in 1476. The present gate dates back to the second half of the 18th century and its clockwork dates from 1712. Its three stone weights, cannonballs from the Battle of Murten, are still wound every day.
