Le château en bref
The Landsitz Bürenstock, originally known as the Schosshaldengut, is a patrician country house in the Bernese district of Allmend-Murifeld, on the heights of the Schosshalde. The inventory of buildings of the city of Bern dates the estate to around 1737. The main house is of the type of the baroque pavilion with a mansard roof of one and a half storeys, which makes it an elegant Bernese country house. The locality was known until the late nineteenth century as "beim gemeinen Sood". Around the main house are grouped outbuildings (Schosshaldenstrasse 58 and 58 C, a timber house with a carriage house at 58 B), a neo-baroque garden gate crowned with urns, the residential house with farm section at Schosshaldenstrasse 44, originally built for Daniel Rhagor, and the former farm buildings near the motorway with their green space. The outbuilding of 1853 housed a stable, a carriage house and a servants' room, with a prayer hall of the Evangelical Society on the upper floor; the gabled barn with stepped gables dates from 1873. The inventory ranks the estate among the best-maintained and best-preserved country estates in the city of Bern.
