Throngs of reporters and onlookers were kept at a distance from the property, and police established an exclusion zone at the lake to prevent curious boaters from congregating.
The 50- by 100-metre zone was cordoned off "not because Tina Turner wants this (but) to avoid many boats" crowding near the manor in Kuesnacht, on Lake Zurich, said police spokeswoman Esther Surber.

A German fan who had endured hours in front of the chateau in hopes of catching a glimpse of her idol fainted in the sweltering summer heat and was taken to hospital, the Tages-Anzeiger newspaper reported.
Turner, born Anna Mae Bullock to a sharecropper family in Tennessee, divorced her first husband, Ike Turner, in the late 1970s. That marriage collapsed as Ike Turner's addiction problems and violent nature took their toll on her. Her wedding to Bach took place on the same date as wedding to Turner 51 years earlier. Turner died in 2007.
