OFTEN OVERLOOKED IN FAVOUR OF ZURICH OR GENEVA, BASEL IS AN ARCHITECTURAL GEM AWAITING DISCOVERY.
WHILE MANY OF THE BUILDINGS IN SWITZERLAND ARE HISTORIC (AND MUCH OF BASEL IS AS WELL) THERE ARE MANY MODERN DESIGNS AND BUILDINGS IN BASEL.
IN BASEL WE FIND TRULY MASTERFUL WORKS OF CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURAL ART, CREATED BY INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED ARCHITECTS LIKE FRANK GEHRY, TADAO ANDO AND HERZOG & DE MEURON.
BASEL ALSO HAS THE UNUSUAL DISTINCTION OF BEING THE MEETING POINT FOR THREE COUNTRIES - THE MONUMENT AT THREE COUNTRIES CORNER IS THE PLACE WHERE SWITZERLAND, GERMANY AND FRANCE MEET.
