Arnaud (a.noctilux) has correctly named the place and even two of the buildings. It's his turn to post the next mystery picture. I am sorry if I have not made that clear enough.

The Roche building (also identified but not named by AZach) is, BTW, by Herzog & de Meuron of Basel, who also made the Elphi and so on. The prominent grey block on the right hand side is the Meret Oppenheim building (offices and flats), also by Herzog & de Meuron. Close to the right border you can see in the distance the Radio Tower (which does double duty as water tower) on Chrischona which is part of Basel; it's a sturdy building designed to withstand earthquakes up to Richter 8.

Not Pic du Midi.

Not in Chile,

somewhere between the two sites.

oh... maybe the LST (Large Sized Telescope)  in La Palma. 🤔

 

.... seems to be to small....

FinnPirat, not the LST but MAGIC, link to MAGIC (Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov Telescopes)

La Palma is correct , at Roque de los Muchachos

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roque_de_los_Muchachos_Observatory

[...

MAGIC detected^[5] very high energy cosmic rays from the quasar 3C 279, which is 5 billion light years from Earth. This doubles the previous record distance from which very high energy cosmic rays have been detected. The signal indicated that the universe is more transparent than previously thought based on data from optical and infrared telescopes.

Correct. I'd have taken Milford Sound or even Fiordland. Thought it was well known. Your turn.
