Fernández Anchorena Palace, Neoclassical palace in Recoleta, Argentina.

The three-story Fernández Anchorena Palace features symmetrical proportions and classical architectural elements throughout its exterior and interior spaces.

Completed in 1909 by architect Eduardo Le Monnier, the palace served as the presidential residence from 1922 to 1928 under Marcelo Torcuato de Alvear.

The palace represents the architectural preferences of Argentine high society during the early 20th century, when European styles influenced local construction.

Located at coordinates -34.589444, -58.385833, the palace functions as the Apostolic Nunciature, the diplomatic mission of the Holy See in Argentina.

The building was never inhabited by its original owners, the Fernández-Anchorena family, who instead used it for social events and ceremonies.
