Presidential Palace, Presidential palace in Kaloum district, Conakry, Guinea

The Presidential Palace stands behind Sainte-Marie Cathedral, featuring classical architectural elements with a symmetrical facade and formal landscaping around the structure.

Built during French colonial rule as a governor's residence, the palace underwent reconstruction in 1983 with assistance from the People's Republic of China.

The Sekhoutoureah Palace represents executive authority in Guinea, serving as the center for governmental ceremonies, diplomatic receptions, and official state functions.

Access to the Presidential Palace requires official authorization, with security checkpoints and military personnel maintaining strict control of the surrounding area.

The palace witnessed significant events in September 2021 when military forces initiated actions that resulted in changes to Guinea's governmental structure.
