Theatre Tower on the Julier Pass

☆☆☆ EXPLORED 21-09-2021 ☆☆☆ In the middle of the alpine scenery of the Julier Pass at 2,300 m altitude in Switzerland the red painted tower seems like a surreal unscaled photomontage. Presumably it is the highest theatre in Europe. The Origen Cultural Festival is known for its unusual venues for music and dance performances. Today, it is one of the largest cultural institutions in the canton of Grisons. The cultural festival has now acquired a new location: a 30-metre-high gleaming red tower in the rocky landscape of the Julier Pass, 2,300 metres above sea level. The structure, which cost more than CHF 2 millions and was financed largely by donations, was planned as a temporary object and will presumably be dismantled in 2023. Since the site lies outside the permitted building area, the tower was allowed only on condition that it would be provisional. Thank you for your visits / comments / faves!
