The UN Architecture Tour is dedicated to a marvel of modernist design and international style – the UN Headquarters building in New York. Our tour will explore the fascinating history behind the “Workshop for Peace”, a collaborative effort of 11 renowned architects from around the world to build a home for the United Nations, and explore how this ‘workshop’ reinforces and accommodates peacebuilding and multilateralism until this day.

All visitors 18 years and older must present a valid original government-issued photo identification for entry to the United Nations Headquarters. Children under 5 years of age are not permitted on tours.

Plan to arrive 60 minutes before your tour to allow time for the check-in and security screening with UN Security.

Guests should review the list of prohibited items on the UN's website at https://www.un.org/en/visitor-centre-new-york/page/arrival. Note that there is no bag check facility available.

Please dress in a way that respects the professional working environment of the United Nations.
