Accra ghana presidential palace

Jubilee House, located on Liberation Road in Accra, is the official presidential palace, serving as the residence and office of the President of Ghana.

This iconic structure embodies the nation’s rich history, political progress, and architectural elegance, seamlessly blending tradition with modernity.

Originally constructed on the site of a colonial-era administrative building, the palace’s history mirrors Ghana’s journey from British colonial rule to sovereign independence.

Known earlier as the Flagstaff House, the building became a significant landmark in 1957 when it served as the residence and office of Ghana’s first president, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. It was here that Ghana’s independence was declared, symbolizing the country’s emergence as the first sub-Saharan African nation to break free from colonial rule.

Over the years, the palace underwent several transformations.
