Basel is a good city for architecture, taking its civic responsibilities seriously, now as always in the past. Here are some things I saw.
The Münster:-
The entrance to the Natural History Museum:-
Art nouveau detailing on the tram stop on Aeschenplatz:-
The neo-baroque main railway station, opened in 1907:-
The still classical, but more modernist Badische Bahnhof, designed by Robert Curjel and Karl Moser and opened in 1913:-
The first of the BIS towers, built by Martin Burkhardt in 1976:-
Mario Botta’s 1995 neo-classical BIS building on Aeschenplatz:-
And, lastly, Herzog and de Meuron’s Central Switching Station from 1999:-
