The Zurich home of the recently deceased rock icon Tina Turner has become a place of pilgrimage for fans, with some of them even trying to climb over the fence to get a closer look at her villa, according to news reports. Since Turner died on May 24, fans have been gathering daily in front of her home in Küsnacht, to mourn her death. A relative of the star's husband, Erwin Bach, told the 20 Minuten newspaper that police had been called in three times after some fans attempted to enter the extensive grounds. Around the world, the iconic singer was known for her many hits and her charismatic stage presence. But in Küsnacht, Zurich, where she lived for nearly three decades, her existence was mostly quiet and spiritual. In this video, SWI swissinfo.ch looks back at the star's very private life in Switzerland.
