Libertad Palace
Building in Buenos Aires, Argentina
About
The Libertad Palace, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento Cultural Center (Spanish: Palacio Libertad, Centro Cultural Domingo Faustino Sarmiento) is a cultural centre located in the Post and Telecommunications Palace in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is the largest of Latin America, and the third or fourth largest in the world.
The building was originally opened in 1928 as the Buenos Aires Central Post Office ("Palacio de Correos"), operating until 2002. During successive years, it was refurbished and reopened in 2015 as a cultural center. It was named Centro Cultural Néstor Kirchner (CCK) for nine years, after the former president of Argentina, who had overseen its conversion. The name was politically polarizing in Argentina, with the country's presidency announcing the name would be changed in March 2024.
