Biberstein is a quiet municipality on the banks of the Aare River in Switzerland, part of the canton of Aargau. The town, which dates back to the 13th century, is famous for its castle, originally built by the Habsburgs and now used as a care facility for the mentally disabled.
Biberstein is situated on the right bank of the Aare River, about 3 kilometers from the state capital Aarau, and covers an area of just 4.1 square kilometers. With around 1,500 inhabitants as of 2022, it has a low density and retains a typical Swiss idyll.
In addition to the castle, the local Protestant church (Reformed Church) dates from the 19th century, and the surrounding forest trails are ideal for hiking. The town regularly organizes traditional festivals, such as the annual market, which showcases the folk culture of the canton of Aargau.
The economy is dominated by small businesses, and most residents commute to Aarau for work. The town is well served by public transportation, with buses connecting to Aarau's train station and the A1 highway providing quick access to Zurich or Basel.
