"The current president, Milei, changed the name of this building to Palacio Libertad from Centro Cultural Kirchner. He didn't want it named after the previous VP (and before that, president), Cristina Kirchner.
The building of the Palacio Libertad has been declared a National Historic Monument. The building took 40 years to complete and was inaugurated in 1928 where it was first used as a post office and telegraph center. It is also where the first radio transmission was made in Argentina, in 1937, and later acted as the office of Eva Peron in 1946. Today, the Palacio Libertad is an educational and artistic space.
In the current Palacio Libertad you can find concerts, recitals, visual arts exhibitions, literature, poetry, dance, theater and performance events, electronic arts, technologies, programming for children, workshops, festivals, screenings, tributes, fairs, video clip cycles, etc.
Tours of the Palacio Libertad are free. There is no need to reserve in advance for the tours on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Though visits on Saturday and Sunday require a booking in advance.

However, you can also just walk in and look around. A tour is not necessary. There are several staff members on every floor to direct you towards the exhibits. The entrance is FREE!
The Palacio Libertad is open from 2pm to 8pm every day except Monday and Tuesday, so this is definitely an afternoon activity.
There are several floors with activities and exhibits, including one floor dedicated to children's events. Plan to spend a couple of hours here. In the center of the building, there is a giant silver structure with blue lights and a platform in the center. It's quite interesting. "
