Palacio de la Prefectura de Chuquisaca, Baroque palace and national monument in Chuquisaca, Bolivia.
The Palacio de la Prefectura de Chuquisaca exhibits detailed architectural elements, including a central oval displaying the National Shield with the inscription 'Unity is Strength'.
Construction of the palace began in 1892 under President Aniceto Arce's administration and reached completion in 1896, replacing land formerly owned by the Archbishopric of Charcas.
The palace interior contains three distinct sections: governmental offices, presidential quarters, and National Guard facilities, representing different aspects of administrative functions.
The building stands at the intersection of Aniceto Arce and Ayacucho streets, next to the Metropolitan Cathedral of Sucre on the main square 25 de Mayo.
After the Bolivian Civil War, the government headquarters moved to La Paz, transforming this palace into the administrative center of the Chuquisaca Department.
