The time has come for the temporary red theatre tower on the Julier Pass in Graubünden to be dismantled. Origen Cultural Foundation is planning a new, permanent tower to replace it. The new cultural house, "Ospizio", will be 55 metres high, 25 metres higher than the internationally renowned Julier Tower. It will have twelve rooms for guests to stay in, a restaurant to provide meals, and a floating stage for performances. The new tower will be granted a permanent permit, and the estimated cost of construction is 25 million Swiss francs, compared to the 2.5 million francs spent on the temporary Julier Tower. At present, only a sketch of the new vision exists, and the Foundation is aware of the large hurdles that must be overcome in order to obtain the necessary building permits.nnnnnnnnnn
