Palacio Paz, French-style palace in Retiro district, Buenos Aires, Argentina

The Paz Palace spans 12,000 square meters and contains 140 rooms with 40 bathrooms, featuring three wings and an internal garden in French architecture style.

Jose C. Paz, owner of La Prensa newspaper, commissioned French architect Louis Sortais to design this residence between 1902 and 1914 with materials from Europe.

The palace currently houses the Military Officers Association, maintaining a library of 120,000 texts focused on military history and the National Museum of Armaments.

Visitors can access the palace through guided tours every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, with advance reservations required through email contact.

The Great Hall of Honor features a circular form with a high dome, incorporating design elements from French castles such as Chantilly Castle.
