Casa de Esteban de Luca, Colonial residence in San Telmo, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Casa de Esteban de Luca stands as a Spanish colonial building constructed in 1786, featuring architectural elements typical of 18th-century residential structures.

The residence belonged to Esteban de Luca, a military officer who defended Buenos Aires during the British invasions of 1806 and directed the National Munitions Works.

The house represents the legacy of Esteban de Luca, who composed the Marcha Patriótica, Argentina's first national song, and founded the Buenos Aires Literary Society.

Located at 383 Carlos Calvo Street, the building now functions as a restaurant where visitors can experience the historical architecture while dining.

The property received National Historic Monument status in 1941, preserving the memory of de Luca, who tragically drowned in the Río de la Plata in 1824.
