Situated along the valley Scorff Berné is a parish that dates back to the 10th and 11th century. It holds mainly in its history the events related to Conspiracy Cellamare. The Marquis de Pont-Calleck, who owned the castle of the same name, tried to protest against the royal power to obtain the restoration of the privileges of Britain. The uprising ended in failure after which the marquis and his three companions were executed. The castle now houses a religious congregation. Its park is open to the public.

Bern's history, however, is much older than the famous Marquis. Witness the remains of the medieval village in the heart of the forest of Pont-Calleck.

It is on Berné that the castle, the park and the forest of Pont-Calleck are located. Almost nothing remains of the fortified manor of the famous Marquis. On its site rises a 19th century residence which retains some older elements. Not far away were the Pont-Calleck forges, of which there are still buildings. It is possible to visit the park.

In the forest, a hamlet, partially excavated at the end of the 1970s, is highlighted. It can be visited independently because a circuit, decorated with panels combining texts and graphic reconstructions, is set up on the site. The scientifically restored buildings allow everyone to understand a modest rural architecture that lasted from the Middle Ages to the middle of the last century.
