Few settlements in the Bern region have a history as closely tied to prehistoric lakeshore life as Sutz-Lattrigen. On the southern shore of Lake Biel, the municipality faces the Jura slopes across the water and forms part of Switzerland’s Three Lakes region. Archaeological sites at Sutz-Lattrigen belong to the UNESCO-listed Prehistoric Pile Dwellings around the Alps, documenting Neolithic and Bronze Age communities that lived along the lake’s edge. This deep past gives the small lakeside municipality an importance far beyond its size. Today, its shoreline links residential areas, cultivated land and access to the lake, with Biel/Bienne nearby at the eastern end.
