X-TRA, Modernist event venue in Zurich, Switzerland
The X-TRA occupies a Bauhaus-style building on Limmatstrasse 118, featuring multiple halls for events and performances along with hotel facilities.
The structure, initially named Limmathaus, opened in 1931 following architect Karl Egender's design principles of the Neues Bauen movement that influenced Swiss architecture.
The venue hosts diverse musical performances, art exhibitions, and community gatherings, serving as a central meeting point for Zurich's District 5 residents.
The main hall accommodates various events from concerts to corporate functions, with modern lighting systems and adaptable spaces for different gathering sizes.
Muhammad Ali conducted training sessions at this location before his 1971 match at the Hallenstadion, adding a notable chapter to the building's history.
