INTERLAKEN

This article appears in Volume V14, Page 693 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: I27-INV
INTERLAKEN , a Swiss town (1864 ft.) in the
canton
  of Berne, situated on the flat plain (BOdeli) between the lakes of Brienz (E.) and of
Thun
  (W.), and connected by steamer, as well as by railway (171 m.) with the town of
Thun
 . It is built on the left bank of the Aar, and grew up around the religious
house
  of Austin Canons, founded about 1130 and suppressed in 1528. In the surviving buildings of the convent religious services (Anglican, Scottish Presbyterian and French
Protestant
 ) are now held, while the more modern castle is occupied by offices of the Cantonal Government. The fine and well-shaded avenue called the Hoheweg runs through the main portion of the town, and is lined on the north side by a succession of huge hotels and the large Kursaal. Interlaken is much frequented in summer, partly because of the glorious view of the Jungfrau (13,669 ft.) which it commands to the
south
 , and partly because it is the best starting-point for many excursions, as. to Schynige Platte, Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald. The lines serving these places all start from the eastern railway station (that from Thun reaches the western or main railway station), whence steamers depart for the Giessbach Falls, Brienz and Meiringen, on the way to Lucerne or to the Grimsel Pass. In 1900 the population of Interlaken was 2962 (mainly
Protestant
  and German-speaking). Opposite Interlaken, and on the right bank of the Aar is Unterseen (in 1900, 2607 inhabitants), which was built in 1280 by Berthol.d von Eschenbach.

 , it is not without its weak points. A
good deal of labour is required to interpret the visibility curves, and in some cases the indications are actually ambiguous. For instance, it is usually impossible to tell on which side of the principal component a feebler companion lies. It would seem that for spectroscopic purposes this apparatus must yield to that of Fabry and Perot, in which multiple reflections are utilized; this is a spectroscope in the literal sense, inasmuch as the constitution of a spectrum line is seen by simple inspection.
