FIFA Sede

The headquarters of FIFA (FIFA-Hauptquartier) is a distinctive complex in Zurich. The complex has served as the official headquarters of FIFA since its completion in 2006. It is located on the Zürichberg, a wooded hill in District 7. The complex includes a fitness centre, a meditation room, geographically themed parks and a full-size international football pitch. The main building has only two upper levels, resulting in two thirds of the headquarters lying underground. "Places where people make decisions should only contain indirect light," said Joseph Blatter, "because the light should come from the people themselves who are assembled there."
