Casa de la Libertad

It was here, on the 6th of August 1925, that Bolivia’s independence act was signed. At the time the Casa de Libertad was being used as a Jesuit chapel and was part of the San Francisco Xavier University. Today, it is a living museum where the original independence document is displayed alongside weapons used during the fight for liberty and other historical memorabilia from this time period. There’s a room dedicated to Antonio Jose de Sucre, one of Bolivia’s founding fathers, and the senate hall where portraits of Bolivia’s presidents are proudly displayed. It’s a great place to get in touch with some of Bolivia’s history.
