Altos de Elorriaga, Colonial building in Monserrat, Argentina

The Altos de Elorriaga features two levels with the ground floor dedicated to commercial spaces and the upper floor designed as living quarters.

Built in 1808 by Juan Bautista de Elorriaga, this structure stands as the first two-story residential building constructed in Buenos Aires.

The building represents a prime example of early 19th-century Argentine architecture and currently houses the Buenos Aires Museum.

Located at Adolfo Alsina 417, the building remains open to visitors interested in exploring the architectural heritage of Buenos Aires.

The structure maintains its original block configuration without beveled corners, making it one of the few remaining buildings with this characteristic.
