A winter day in Bern with Bärn Kit

Morning: off to the Märit

The Märit-Kalender (market calendar) shows which markets are open today, with place and time. Under “Once a year” you'll find the Zibelemärit on the fourth Monday in November, the Christmas markets and the Sternenmarkt. With “Subscribe to calendar”, the market days go straight into your calendar app. There are no markets on public holidays.

Afternoon: things that cost nothing

Gratis Bern collects what costs nothing in Bern. The Zentrum Paul Klee lets children and young people up to 16 into its exhibitions for free every Sunday. With the KulturLegi Kanton Bern, many things are much cheaper. Every line names its source, and the source always applies.

Evening: a warm place

In Kühl & warm, pick “Winter”. The map shows warm rooms open to everyone, often with coffee or tea. You see the address, opening hours, whether the room is open now, and a phone number. They include the Offene Kirche Heiliggeist and Punkt 6, which is open from November to April.

Sunday: what's open?

Jetzt offen shows pharmacies, grocery shops, petrol station shops and laundrettes that are open right now. With “Sunday” you see what is open on Sunday at 11 am. Public holidays in the canton of Bern are taken into account. Still, check the times before you set off.
