Lonely Planet review

Many international visitors are mystified that Zürich doesn't make more of the stunning Le Corbusier Pavilion and Heidi Weber museum. However, as a cash-strapped private museum its opening times are sadly limited. Looking like a Mondrian painting set in parkland, with differently coloured square panels, glass and steel, this was the last building designed by Le Corbusier (who died in 1965).

Completed after his death, it long lay unused, but now contains many of his architectural plans, drawings, weavings, paintings, furniture and books - all collected by client, fan and friend Heidi Weber. The exterior alone is worth seeing.
