Piz Gloria
Featured in:
Art Director:
  • Syd Cain

Purpose:
  • Headquarters and Living area for the Bleauchamp Clinic for Allergies (but secretly Blofeld's base of operations for his "Virus Omega" project).

Description:
  • Located high in the Swiss Alps for isolation of the Clinic's patients during the "delicate procedure," Muren's Piz Gloria is reachable only by helicopter and overhead tram (and climbing--but only at your own risk!)
  • The Piz Gloria complex provides living accommodations, dining facilities, recreational opportunities, as well as a rotunda providing a spectacular 360 degree view of the neighboring mountains. It also has an underground laboratory facility separated from the main facility and protected by "anti-septors." The wheel house from the tram can be used as an impromptu (if unreliable) holding facility.
  • Conveniently located near an Olympic-class bobsled run, Piz Gloria also provides ample opportunity for adrenaline-charged skiing challenges!
  • The facility was blown up by unknown mercenaries in 1969, but has re-opened (under new management) as a fine-dining restaurant.
