Executive Mansion, Presidential residence in Capitol Hill, Monrovia, Liberia

The Executive Mansion is the official residence and workplace of Liberia's president, standing across the street from the Capitol Building in the Capitol Hill district of Monrovia. The current building was constructed between 1961 and 1964 under President William Tubman. Its facade is covered by a grid of concrete fins, grey verticals and tan or brown horizontals, with dark rectangular gaps between them; a white flat-roofed portico supported by columns projects from the centre of the lower facade, behind a black metal fence on a low black wall with light-grey capped posts.

Construction began in 1961 under President William Tubman and was completed in 1964, marking the start of a new governing era. The building has remained central to Liberia's governance structure since its completion.

The building serves as a setting for state visits, national celebrations, and official meetings between government leaders and foreign representatives. Diplomats and international guests gather here to conduct matters of state.

Visitors need advance permission through official channels, as the building maintains strict security protocols. It is best to contact the relevant authorities beforehand to understand the specific access requirements.

The 2006 fire broke out on July 26 while President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was hosting foreign guests and dignitaries in the mansion gardens during the 159th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The building reopened on February 14, 2022.
