The flat on the second floor of Kramgasse No. 49 was rented by Albert Einstein from 1903 to 1905. It has been restored in the style of that period to reflect Einstein's stay in Bern. The site is open to the public.

On 18 April 1955 - about 50 years ago - Einstein died in Princeton, USA, half a century after his famous "annus mirabilis" 1905, where he, living in Berne, "turned upside down" the world view of physics.
