Wohlen bei Bern

Wohlen bei Bern is best known within the canton of Bern for Wohlensee, an Aare reservoir created by the Mühleberg dam. The municipality lies northwest of the federal city of Bern, although its territory is not a single built-up place: fields, wooded slopes and settlements such as Hinterkappelen and Uettligen extend across the Bernese Plateau. Here, the Aare broadens into a long reservoir with inlets along its forested banks. The Mühleberg hydroelectric plant began operating in 1920, giving the lake its modern form.
