Edificio Ex Intendencia, Valparaíso, Historical monument at Plaza Sotomayor, Valparaíso, Chile.
The Ex Intendencia building displays French neoclassical architecture with a central dome, large windows, and ornate stone decorations across its four-story facade.
The construction began in 1906 after an earthquake destroyed the previous structure, and the building was completed in 1910 for Chile's centennial celebration.
The building housed administrative offices, including the city governor's residence and a presidential apartment, representing regional governmental power until 1973.
Located at 594 Sotomayor Street, the building currently serves as headquarters for the Chilean Navy Command and features a prominent clock on its facade.
The interior preserves its original marble staircase and furniture imported from Paris, with walls decorated in their restored original blue color since 2013.
