Mon Repos, History museum in Corfu, Greece

The Mon Repos palace exhibits neoclassical design elements with symmetrical proportions, white columns, and windows overlooking the Ionian Sea.

The British High Commissioner Frederick Adam commissioned the construction of Mon Repos in 1828 as a summer residence for his Corfiot wife Nina Palatianou.
