It has been discovered that Tina Turner's lakeside Swiss mansion has sold, just days after her passing.

The Chateau Algonquin, where admirers and well-wishers have gone to pay their respects, is now owned by a wealthy Swiss businesswoman.

Turner and her husband Erwin Bach had spent the past 22 years residing at the magnificent home, which features a four-story main house, a big garden, a two-story boathouse, and is situated on grounds totaling 1350 acres.

However, the couple never owned the large property in the affluent municipality of Küsnacht, outside of Zurich. They merely took it from the owner on a rental basis.

Turner and her EMI executive partner came to Zurich in 1998 because they needed direct access to Lake Zurich.

Tina and Erwin also had their magnificent wedding ceremony at the castle in 2013 when they exchanged vows in front of a sizable international guest list.

The villa, which Turner named after her native American Algonquin ancestors, was sold, the local Handelszeitung said, and this was confirmed by the land record office in Küsnacht.

The property's new owner, entrepreneur Ines Kaindl-Benes, is said to have bought it as an investment, so Erwin, a widower, isn't expected to be kicked out.

Kaindl-Benes is the chairman of the board of directors of the Lucerne-based, family-owned Swiss Krono Group, with a personal wealth estimated to be worth $988 million.

Although the precise purchase price has not been made public, the chateau is rumored to have changed hands for up to $86 million in cash.

Turner and her husband Erwin purchased a second home in the village of Stäfa, which is located further along the lake, two years ago as a weekend escape.

Ten buildings, six acres of grounds, a private pond, stream, swimming pool, and boat dock make up the lakefront estate.
