The Palace of the Multinational Legislative Assembly (Legislative Palace) is located in the center of La Paz, the actual capital of Bolivia. After the end of the Bolivian Civil War of 1898-1899, the country's political power concentrated in La Paz. According to the archives of the Legislative Assembly, the Legislative Palace was built in 1900-1905, by order of President Jose Manuel Pando. For construction, a place was allocated on which the monastery of the Jesuit Order Loreto, built in 1552-1586, was previously located. Antonio Kompanovo, one of the leading architects of Bolivia, who built more than one building in La Paz, became the author of the project for the building of the Legislative Palace. The palace was built in the classical style, its main facade overlooking the Murillo Square, decorated with columns of the Corinthian order with pilasters. In the center of the building is a dome with a large city clock. The palace, which houses the chambers of deputies and senators, has two floors, from the first to the second floor there is a grand marble staircase. On the top floor are the library of the Legislative Assembly and the Assembly Archive. The walls of the palace are decorated with portraits of the presidents of Bolivia, the ceiling is a painting of “Allegories of the Nation”, which depicts the country's legislative and executive branches - the Constitution or the Magna Carta, the Senate and the House of Representatives, the President and his cabinet, and the Judiciary. In 2012, it was decided to build a new building for the Multinational Legislative Assembly, work should begin in 2015. In the old Legislative Palace in the future it is planned to create a museum.
