Residencia El Messidor, French-style castle in Villa La Angostura, Argentina.
The granite structure features two floors with a basement, circular library, and large dining areas overlooking Lake Nahuel Huapi.
Sara Madero de Demaría commissioned architect Alejandro Bustillo to design the residence in 1940, with construction completed in January 1942.
The residence takes its name from the French Revolutionary calendar, where Messidor represented the tenth month associated with golden wheat fields.
The building serves as the official residence of the Neuquén provincial government since its acquisition in 1964 for seventeen million pesos.
The property encompasses 36 hectares of geometric gardens filled with native trees, including colihues, pines, and cypress specimens.
