Cotroceni Palace in Bucharest, Romania, serves as the official residence of the President of Romania. The palace has a rich history dating back to its origins as a monastic complex in the late 17th century, founded by Prince Șerban Cantacuzino. Over time, it underwent several transformations, notably during the reign of King Carol I, who commissioned architect Paul Gottereau to redesign it in the late 19th century. The palace combines elements of neo-Romanian and classical architecture, featuring elegant interiors and expansive gardens.
