Palace of Justice of the Argentine Nation, Courthouse in San Nicolás, Buenos Aires, Argentina
The Palace of Justice spans over 60,100 square meters across eight floors, featuring symmetrical facades finished with imitation Paris stone and grand Neoclassical columns.
French architect Norbert Maillart initiated the construction in 1905, with partial inauguration occurring during the 1910 Centennial celebrations of the May Revolution.
The entrance hall displays a monumental bronze sculpture created by Rogelio Yrurtia, while the interior holds a bust of José de San Martín by Luis Perlotti.
The National Supreme Court headquarters offers guided tours in Spanish at 2:30 PM on Fridays, with advance reservations required through phone number +54 11 4114 5791.
The building design required modifications in 1925, including an additional floor to the original plan and the introduction of multiple statues representing legal principles.
