7 PALAIS DES NATIONS The Palais des Nations dates to the 1930s and was the headquarters of the former League of Nations, the UN’s predecessor. The complex is in constant use and hosts thousands of intergovernmental meetings each year, but it is also open for hour-long guided tours in 15 different languages. Your level of access is contingent on the meeting schedule, but tours typically encompass the Human Rights Room, the immense Assembly Hall, the Salle des Pas Perdus and the Council Chamber, where epoch- making negotiations have taken place between nations.
