Palace of the Lopez

Local namePalacio de los López
LocationLa Encarnación, Asunción, Paraguay

Palacio de los López, officially titled Palacio de Gobierno is a neoclassical manor in Asunción, Paraguay, that serves as a workplace for the President of Paraguay, and is also the seat of the government of Paraguay. The president does not reside in the palace, and is instead housed at Mburuvicha Róga, some 2.5 km to the southeast.

Located in the center of Asunción, overlooking Asunción Bay, Palacio de los López was built by order of Carlos Antonio López, the first Paraguyan head of state to hold the title of president, per the constitution of 1844. The dictator envisioned a López dynasty, and he intended for the palace to house his son and designated successor, General Francisco Solano López, which gives rise to the palace's name. Ultimately, Solano López never resided there.
