Errázuriz Palace, National historical monument in Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Palacio Errázuriz exhibits French neoclassical architecture with a grand staircase, ornate chandeliers, and detailed moldings throughout its four floors.

Built in the 1910s for diplomat Matías Errázuriz and his wife Josefina de Alvear, the palace faced construction delays due to material shortages during World War I.

Since 1937, the palace houses the National Museum of Decorative Arts, the Argentine Academy of Letters, and the National Academy of Fine Arts.

The museum offers guided tours through its period rooms, displaying European furniture, sculptures, and decorative arts from the original collection.

The gardens, designed by landscape architect Achille Duchêne, integrate seamlessly with the interior architecture through carefully planned spatial arrangements.
