  • The Executive Mansion of Liberia is the official residence and workplace of the country's president. Located across the street from the Capitol Building in the Capitol Hill district of Monrovia, the current building was constructed during the presidency of William Tubman, which lasted from 1944 to 1971. The construction started in 1961, and was completed in 1964. The Executive Mansion was the scene of the murder of Tubman's successor, President William Tolbert (in office 1971–1980), during the 1980 coup d'état. According to public hearings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), blood ritual and other sacrifices were performed at the Executive Mansion during the presidency of Samuel Doe, which lasted from 1980 to 1990. They were meant to render the president as well as the Executive Mansion impregnable. Hundreds of people, especially men, are also said to have been killed on the grounds of the Executive Mansion in the wake of the failed coup attempt by Thomas Quiwonkpa in 1985. The Executive Mansion was destroyed by fire on July 26, 2006, during the 159th anniversary celebration of the adoption of the Liberian Declaration of Independence. President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (in office 2006–2018) was at the time feting foreign guests and dignitaries in the gardens of the Executive Mansion. As of early 2021, a reopening was planned for early 2022. On 14 February 2022, the Executive Mansion was reopened. (en)
  • A Mansão Executiva da Libéria é a residência oficial e local de trabalho do Presidente do país. Localizado em frente ao Capitólio liberiano, no distrito de Capitol Hill em Monróvia, o edifício atual foi construído durante a presidência de William Tubman, que durou de 1944 a 1971. A construção começou em 1961 e foi concluída em 1964, com financiamento do governo israelense. A Mansão Executiva foi o cenário do assassinato do sucessor de Tubman, o presidente William Tolbert (no cargo entre 1971 e 1980), durante o golpe de estado de 1980. Um túnel que ligava a mansão ao mar, e permitiria que os ocupantes escapassem em situações como essa, não pode ser utilizado por Tolbert e sua família pois o elevador não estava funcionando. De acordo com audiências públicas da (TRC), rituais de sangue e outros sacrifícios foram realizados na Mansão Executiva durante a presidência de Samuel Doe, que durou de 1980 a 1990. Eles foram feitos para tornar o Presidente, assim como a Mansão Executiva, inexpugnáveis. Centenas de pessoas, especialmente homens, também teriam sido mortas nas dependências da Mansão Executiva na tentativa fracassada do golpe de Thomas Quiwonkpa em 1985. A Mansão Executiva foi destruída por um incêndio em 26 de julho de 2006, durante a celebração do 159º aniversário da adoção da Declaração de Independência da Libéria. A presidenta Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (no cargo de 2006 a 2018) estava então homenageando convidados e dignitários estrangeiros nos jardins da Mansão Executiva. Em 2020, o processo de reforma ainda está em andamento. (pt)
