Palace of Nations

Step into the heart of international diplomacy with a visit to the Palace of Nations, the European headquarters of the United Nations. Located in Geneva’s elegant Ariana Park, this historic complex was originally built in the 1930s as the home of the League of Nations. Today, it continues to play a central role in fostering global cooperation and peace. Visitors can join a guided tour to explore the grand Assembly Hall, the Human Rights and Alliance of Civilizations Room, and other key meeting spaces where critical international negotiations take place. Set against a backdrop of lush gardens and overlooking Lake Geneva, the Palace is both a symbol of multilateralism and a powerful reminder of Geneva’s unique role on the world stage.
