Jubilee House is the presidential palace in Accra that serves as a residence and office to the President of Ghana.[1] Jubilee House is built on the site of a building that was constructed and used for administrative purposes by the British Gold Coast Government. The previous seat of government of Ghana was Osu Castle. It was named Golden Jubilee House by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on 29 March 2018 to coincide with the 50th year of Ghana's independence. It has since reverted to Jubilee House.[2] It has previously been known as The Flagstaff House.
