State House, Presidential residence in Moka, Mauritius
The State House occupies 97 hectares of land with gardens containing collections of flowers and trees near the University of Mauritius.
Pierre Felix Barthelemy David initiated the construction of this fortress in 1749 during the French colonial period to protect against military threats.
The Temple of Love memorial near the garden lake Bout du Monde commemorates the contributions of Pierre Felix Barthelemy David to this estate.
The State House functions as both an administrative center and a ceremonial venue for presidential meetings and national celebrations.
The structure incorporates original defensive elements such as battlements and a drawbridge from its initial fortress construction period.
