Well, it was the clue really, that gave it away.
It looked like some sort of open gem mining operation.
I have been around a lot of those.

And the clue that for a long time there was only one known one, Which immediately took me to the Crater of Diamonds in Arkansas, where we had to take any relatives who came to visit.

(Plus, I was in Colorado back when the word got out about the diamonds found up near Red Feather Lakes.)

A quick google and Viola'

So, now to a more civilized place.

I guess that counts as close enough, though.
The building itself is Palais de Justice on Île de la Cité.

Your turn

It looks awfully Bavarian, but I'll bet that would be too simple, huh?
