The Culture and Congress Centre (aka KKL)  in Lucerne, Switzerland is a multi-functional building with a concert hall that is esteemed for its high-profile acoustics. The KKL was built by Jean Nouvel, and it was finished in the year of 1998 at the start of the Lucerne festival. I had the opportunity to study abroad in Lucerne, Switzerland last semester, and I spent a great amount of time in this beautiful building. It is built right along side the Lucerne lake, so there were always incredible views from the glass windows that were all around the building. It also held many concerts throughout the year that were known to be outstanding from its surreal acoustics.
