Signau

Built around the Ilfis River, Signau grew into a rural municipality in the Emmental, the hill country east of Bern. The settlement lies on the rail route through the Ilfis valley between Bern and Lucerne, giving it a practical link to two of Switzerland’s major cities while retaining an agricultural setting. Pastures, farmsteads and wooded slopes define the valley more than dense development. Emmental is the home region of Emmentaler cheese, and Schloss Signau provides a historic landmark near the village centre.
