United Nations HQ

The United Nations Office in Geneva, known as the UNOG, is one of the four main world-wide headquarters of the United Nations. It is located in Geneva, Switzerland.

The UNOG is primarily located in the Palais des Nations, which was constructed in the 1920s to house the League of Nations. The Palais also houses the U.N. Conference on Trade and Developement, the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, and the U.N. Economic Commission for Europe.

In 2013, the UNOG was the victim of a terrorist attack, when HYDRA detonated a bomb in the basement of the Palais, damaging the building and killing four people, including King T'Chakka of Wakanda.
