Volkshaus Zürich

Volkshaus (People’s House) is a kind of conference space and stage that is available for rental by the general public. Located on Stauffacherstrasse and facing Helvetiaplatz, it opened about 100 years ago and has a bookshop, sauna and restaurant.  We went there for dinner on our last evening in Zurich.  Food was solidly good.  The somewhat traditional dining room has high ceiling and big windows which faces the square.  A network of neon lights mimics and traces the pipes on the ceiling livening up the otherwise blend bar and dining room.  Reflections of the neon lights on the window against the dusk and night skys made interesting pictures.  There must have been a rock concert that night since lots of people were lining up to enter the building on one side.
