Escuela Nacional de Inteligencia, Intelligence academy in Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The Escuela Nacional de Inteligencia is an intelligence school building in Recoleta housed within a Belle Époque mansion at Libertad 1235. The three-story structure contains classrooms, offices, and administrative spaces designed in classical style.
The institution was founded by presidential decree in 1967 and first operated from Diagonal Norte. It relocated to its current Recoleta location in 1982, where it has remained since then.
The school's emblem features a chessboard, triangle, and fox alongside the Latin motto 'De Omni Re Scibili,' which expresses the pursuit of strategic knowledge. These symbols appear throughout the building and reflect what the institution values in its work.
The building maintains strict security measures, including surveillance systems and controlled entry points throughout the facility. Visitor access is limited and advance arrangement may be necessary to enter the grounds.
The mansion blends French Belle Époque architecture with modern security systems while maintaining its early twentieth-century character. It shows how a historic building can adapt to contemporary needs without losing its original appeal.
