Our center

THE CENTER TODAY

The Centre International John Knox is located in Grand-Saconnex, Geneva, on a large wooded plot close to the international organizations, with a magnificent view of the Geneva countryside, the Jura mountains and the lake in the distance. 

Access is via a quiet, shady lane. Geneva airport is not far away. Public transport is close by, and bus 59 serves the "John Knox" stop on our doorstep.

The Center is a place of welcome, peace and dialogue, an oasis of calm open to people of all backgrounds and religions. It's friendly, simple and multicultural. Visitors come from all over the world.

We offer conference and meeting room rentals, a cafeteria and rooms at affordable rates.

We welcome intergovernmental organizations, NGOs, diplomatic missions, universities, local authorities and socio-professional groups for training courses or seminars, as well as wellness and spiritual groups. We also welcome guests looking for a quiet place to eat and sleep.

Our aim is to satisfy our customers in search of a peaceful haven in which to reflect. We are motivated by our values of hospitality, conviviality and good living together.

THE CENTER TOMORROW

Work is currently underway to renovate the Center. Some buildings will be restored, others replaced. The new buildings will be environmentally friendly and sustainable. The site's exceptional landscape heritage will be enhanced.

Our welcoming mission will be extended to include a program of conferences on topics such as ethics, sustainable development, spirituality and inter-religious dialogue. The Centre also continues to support the "Témoigner Ensemble à Genève" (TEAG) movement.

The new Centre will be rooted in the local and international community that surrounds it.
