"Visitabile, ma non si poteva prenotare sul sito quindi boh. Davanti c’è la scultura della sedia rotta, alta 12 metri in legno. Simboleggia lotta contro mine antiuomo, collocata nel 1997"

"The Palais des Nations (Palace of the Nations), with its 1,969-foot- (600-m-) long Art Deco frontage overlooking the French Alps and Lake Geneva, is the Geneva headquarters of the United Nations. Built between 1929 and 1938, it was designed by leading architects from several European countries: Carlo Broggi of Italy, Julien Flegenheimer of Switzerland, Camille Lefèvre and Henri-Paul Nénot of France, and Josef Vago of Hungary. The idea for a Society of Nations was first put forward by Marquis Masson in 1771, who suggested that it should be hosted by Switzerland. After the Paris Peace Convention of 1919 to 1920, the League of Nations was created and Masson's vision was finally realized. Its goal was to prevent wars, settle disputes between countries through diplomacy, and improve welfare. The League of Nations became the United Nations after World War Il. The early 1950s saw the addition of two extensions. Three floors were added to the "K" building, and the "D" building was constructed and used as a temporary location for the World Health Organization. The "New" building was constructed in 1973 to provide conference facilities. The Palais is built in the 111-acre (45-ha) Ariana Park, which was left to the City of Geneva by the Revilliod de Rive family. In the park is a chalet dating from 1668, brought from the Gruyère district, and many trees more than one hundred years old. Under the foundation stone of the Palais, laid on September 7, 1929, is a capsule containing a copy of the Covenant of the League, a document that lists the names of the League of Nations members, and coins of all the countries at the league's Tenth Assembly. The grounds were sold with one condition: that peacocks should roam freely, which they still do today."
