Bergen is German for mountains.
Because the game is sometimes referred to as “the Bergen game,” there is reason to believe it did not originate in Germany, but might have come instead from Bergen op Zoom, a coastal town in the Netherlands, or from Bergen, Norway.
What's unique: Both ends of the layout must be made alike
