History and culture

The later Zollbrücke dates back to a permit issued by Bern in 1551 to build a bridge over the Emme. The production of valley cheese began in the hamlet of Längenbach in 1824; this contributed to the Emmental’s transition to dairy farming.

Settlement in Lauperswil is documented for around the year 700; at the same time, the Alemanni settled in the region.

Rail service reached Lauperswil in 1864 with the Bern–Langnau line via Emmenmatt station.
