Sierra Leone House of Parliament, Legislative building at Tower Hill, Freetown, Sierra Leone.
The Parliament building features a dome-shaped chamber arranged in horseshoe formation, with sharp geometric lines and rough concrete surfaces throughout its structure.
The Parliament structure originated from a Legislative Council in 1863, transforming into the House of Representatives in 1954 before gaining full independence in 1961.
The Parliament includes 146 members, with 132 directly elected representatives and 14 paramount chiefs representing different regions and ethnic communities.
Visitors need identification documents and must follow dress codes to enter the building, which contains member lounges, committee rooms, and a library.
The Parliament building dome design draws inspiration from the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, constructed with Israeli assistance and local materials.
