Austria?
or
Switzerland?

Neither of these two.

Reminds me of the pic of the linear accelerator lab we played a month or so ago.
CERN in Switzerland?

Though not in Swiss, you're definitely on to something.

Nope, they were faster than I could see them :)

Looks quite an industrial complex.

Or more likely a scientific establishment.

So for the country. Hmmm, certainly mountainous region, and given the low angle of the sun are we talking more Northern Europe than Southern Europe. Still think a Germanic country, so lets go for Germany...

A clue must be those long gutters on the LH buildings.

Not sure about that, but Donald and especially Tulio gave the best clues so far.

I'd vote for the second option, but out of Germany.

Hmm, two tiny countries to consider:
Liechtenstein and Luxembourg

Now I wander what those two have got hidden within their tiny boarders...

I'll just throw them into the pot to get them chucked out again.

A particle accelerator lab, but not CERN,
not Switzerland or Germany but somewhere close.
Are there any high-energy physics labs in Austria , Poland, or the Czech Republic?

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes.

Maybe there are, but this is not one of them.

Tullio

Among other things... in a way it is ;)

It is obvious that you know what it is, so can you please be more specific.

It should be a building of the Gran Sasso National Laboratory where neutrinos coming from CERN in Geneva were clocked at a speed higher than the speed of light, a result much discussed. The lab is underground, so this could be an entrance building. On the background I see the autostrada which has a tunnel under the Gran Sasso mountain. Abruzzo Region, Italy.

Now that's what I called being thorough.

With second option I was referring to scientific establishment instead of industrial complex.

This town was the site of another physics experiment 4 centuries ago. Name the city, the river and the scientist who did the experiment.
