Tina Turner had lived in Switzerland for 25 years, and in 2020 she bought a dream property of hers.
On Wednesday, May 24, the world of music was visited in mourning after the death of Tina Turner was announced at the age of 83. As revealed, the artist passed away after battling a "long illness".
The queen of rock had retired from music for many years, more precisely in 2013, when she had already reaped 54 years of career and started with some complex problems and diagnoses that she did not want to talk about a lot.
At that time, Tina Turner had obtained Swiss nationality after marrying Erwin Bach and that led her to renounce the American one. Although she had lived in the aforementioned European country since 1994, a few years ago she had acquired a dream castle in which she went through the last leg of her life.
That luxurious home, which cost the artist and her husband 76 million dollars in 2020, is protected by a huge iron gate and a sign at her entrance that shows her name: Algonquin. Now, that place will go down in history because the rock star spent the last years of her life behind that impressive income, she got sick, rewarded herself on more than one occasion, and finally left.
Tina Turner's castle is located in the town of Küsnacht, on the Gold Coast of Lake Zurich, a very exclusive area. Among the details that make it unique and imposing, it is known that it has ten different buildings, among which all the amenities are distributed.
It has a swimming pool, a shelf, a private area on Lake Zurich with its own pier, extended gardens with all kinds of vegetation, and a stream that runs in the middle. “Here I feel at home. If I am in Lake Zurich, in the house I have, I feel serene. I really have everything here ”, she had said about that place in dialogue with the New York Times.
Tina Turner's castle dates from 100 years ago and has 24 thousand square meters. Among the famous neighbors that she had, is the tennis player Roger Federer, who in the past had wanted to buy the property of the artist.
