Einsteinhaus
The apartment where Einstein lived from 1903 to 1905, where he wrote his “miracle year” papers, including the special theory of relativity.
The house is located on the second and third floors of No. 49 Kramgasse. It recreates the furnishings of Einstein’s living room with his wife Mileva. Upstairs, photographs, copies of manuscripts from his time working at the Bern Patent Office and a biographical film are on display. The space is not large, and it takes about half an hour to see. Admission is around 7 francs. For a deeper look, you can visit the Einstein Museum inside the Bernisches Historisches Museum.
