Wachseldorn is a municipality in the administrative district of Thun in the canton of Bern in Switzerland. ==History== Wachseldorn is first mentioned in 1293 as ''Wachseldorn''.〔 The farms and land that now make up Wachseldorn were originally part of the ''Herrschaft'' of Diessbach. In 1356 it was donated to Interlaken Abbey. Around 1399, the area was administered by the Bernese Röthenbach court. In 1528 Bern adopted the new faith of the Protestant Reformation and suppressed Interlaken Abbey. Whatever claims the Abbey still had to Wachseldorn were transferred to Bern after the Abbey was closed. In the following year, Wachseldorn became part of the bailiwick of Signau in the district of Konolfingen. In 1864 it was moved to the Thun District. In 1805 the municipalities of Buchholterberg and Wachseldorn-Gützenschwendi merged to form a single municipality. However, the relationship was short lived and following disagreements, they separated into Wachseldorn and Buchholterberg in 1823.〔 Originally it was part of the large parish of Oberdiessbach. It became part of the parish of Buchholterberg in 1860. Today about three-quarters of jobs in the municipality are in agriculture, though many residents commute to jobs in or around Thun. The first school in the municipality was probably built in 1660, though very little is known about that building. The current school sits on the same site as an earlier school from 1832. The current building dates back to 1957. A kindergarten was added in 1980. On 21 March 2011 the town council made the decision to close the school as attendance numbers had dropped. The kindergarten remains open, but primary and secondary students travel to Buchholterberg or Oberlangenegg.〔(Wachseldorn municipal website - History ) accessed 15 October 2014〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wachseldorn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
