Zentrum Töss, Brutalist community center in Töss district, Winterthur, Switzerland
The Zentrum Töss consists of multiple concrete structures, including a 39-meter residential tower and a hotel building connected by a central plaza.
Construction began in 1968 by a consortium of Rieter Machine Factory, Winterthur Insurance, and the city administration, with the center opening in October 1970.
The building includes a large event hall that became one of the main venues for community gatherings and performances in the Winterthur region.
The center provides retail spaces, banking services, a library, and direct access to public transportation, including bus lines and proximity to Winterthur Töss station.
Film crews used the center as a filming location for the Swiss movie 'Platzspitzbaby' in 2020, incorporating the building into modern media.
