Ferenbalm

Ferenbalm (French: Les Baumettes) is a municipality in the Laupen administrative district of the canton of Bern, Switzerland.

Ferenbalm lies on the plateau between the Saane and Bibern rivers. The municipality does not have a central town; it is instead made up of the villages of Ferenbalm, Vogelbuch, Kleingümmenen, Rizenbach, Biberen, Jerisberg, Jerisberghof, Haselhof and the exclave Gammen.

The old house in Jerisberghof dates from 1703, and is now the site of a farm museum.
