Politics of Pernambuco
The Campo das Princesas Palace is the administrative headquarters of Pernambuco's executive branch, located in Recife, Brazil. Designed in 1786 by Governor José César Meneses, it was built in 1841 by engineer Morais Âncora, at the behest of Governor Francisco do Rego Barros, where the Royal Treasury used to be. It is located in the neighborhood of Santo Antônio (Antônio Vaz Island), in Praça da República, next to the Santa Isabel Theater and the Palace of Justice. In front of it is a centuries-old baobab tree, possibly the source of inspiration for Saint-Exupéry when he wrote The Little Prince.
