        The Palacio Quemado (officially Government Palace), named after a fire in 1875, is the most important presidential palace in the history of Bolivia, and was later replaced by the Casa Grande del Pueblo. It was the headquarters of the Bolivian executive branch and the office of the President of Bolivia during two non-consecutive periods, 1853–2018 and 2019–2020. The building is located on Calle Comercio in front of Plaza Murillo in the city of La Paz, next to the Catedral Metropolitana and diagonally to the left of the Legislative Palace, which houses the Bolivian Parliament.
        In the last years of the government of Evo Morales (2018–2019), it no longer served as the seat of the executive branch, as it was decided to move the presidential offices to the Casa Grande del Pueblo. It was used again as a presidential headquarters for a short period during the government of Jeanine Áñez (2019–2020).
        Currently, during the government of Luis Arce, it is used in certain state protocol acts, especially official visits by international leaders and political leaders.
