Why go

Its task is to help put the convention into effect by evaluating states' declarations and carrying out inspections. That makes it different from The Hague's courts: the emphasis is verification and the elimination of chemical weapons, not judging a case between parties. The organisation received the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize. Its headquarters is useful civic context, though the available account does not establish a public visit.
