Palaces of Latin America

Palace and aristocratic residence entries whose subject stands in Latin America: Mexico excluded, which belongs with the rest of North America, but Central America, the Caribbean and South America included. Belongs here: any named palace, mansion or grand residence this atlas records as standing in a Latin American country, whether built for a colonial governor, an imperial court, a wealthy family or a republic's head of state, and whether it is now a museum, a government building or still a private home. Does not belong here: a palace in Europe, Asia, Africa or the Middle East, each gathered under its own regional group, or a Latin American government building that was designed as a seat of office rather than a residence, which belongs with Government and Civic Buildings.
