Palácio de São Bento

Palácio de São Bento in Lisbon, Portugal, is the official residence and principal workplace of the Prime Minister of Portugal. Originally built in the late sixteenth century as a Benedictine monastery, the building was later transformed into a state palace and became closely associated with Portugal’s political life. Located next to the Assembleia da República, the palace hosts government meetings, official receptions, and important institutional events. As the seat of the Prime Minister, it plays a central role in the coordination of government policy and executive decision-making, making it one of the most significant symbols of Portugal’s democratic governance.
