Lonely Planet review for Palais des Nations
Home to the UN since 1966, the Palais des Nations was built between 1929 and 1936 to house the now-defunct League of Nations. Admission includes an hour-long tour and entry to the gardens, where a grey monument sprouts, coated with heat-resistant titanium, donated by the USSR to commemorate the conquest of space. An ID card or passport is required for entry.
