Geneva contains many parks and squares, notably the Jardin Anglais and the Place Neuve on the left bank, and the Place des Alpes on the right bank. The principal buildings in the old section include the Cathedral of Saint Peter, built in the 12th and 13th centuries.Geneva became a world center in 1920 with the founding of the League of Nations, which established its headquarters in the city. In 1947 Geneva was designated the European center for the United Nations, and in 1948 the International Labor Organization and the World Health Organization set up headquarters here, followed by other international agencies.
