Villa Senar, Cultural center on Lake Lucerne, Switzerland
The villa features a two-hectare park with diverse trees, expansive green spaces, a gardener's house, and a boathouse near Lake Lucerne.
Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff purchased land in 1930 and built Villa Senar, naming it by combining letters from his and his wife Natalia's names.
The Canton of Lucerne and Serge Rachmaninoff Foundation operate the villa as a venue for concerts, exhibitions, and educational programs.
The property requires advance reservations for visits and can accommodate twenty guests for banquets or thirty-five people for receptions.
Rachmaninoff composed his Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini and Third Symphony in this villa, which houses his original concert grand piano.
