Seeland administrative district, Administrative district in Canton Bern, Switzerland

The Seeland administrative district spans 334 square kilometers across 42 municipalities, with Aarberg serving as its capital city.

The district emerged from the unification of rural bailiwicks Aarberg, Buren, Erlach, and Nidau, which Bern acquired during the Ancien Regime period.

The region contains both German and French speaking communities, reflecting its position between linguistic regions of Switzerland.

The district maintains governmental offices in Aarberg, coordinating services for a population of 76,052 residents across multiple municipalities.

The transformation of Seeland from marshlands to agricultural territory resulted from extensive water management projects in the nineteenth century.
