Government House is the official residence of the governor-general of Saint Lucia. It is also the official residence of the head of state of Saint Lucia (currently King Charles III) when staying in Saint Lucia. The house is located on the crest of Morne Fortune, near Castries. The first Government House that was built on this site was destroyed by a hurricane in 1817, before its completion. A second house, built of timber, was completed on the same spot in 1819. This house fell into disrepair, and was abandoned by 1865. Government House then relocated to a nearby disused military barracks.

  • Government House ist der Amtssitz des Generalgouverneurs von St. Lucia, dem Inselstaat der Karibik. Das Government House steht auf der Anhöhe des Morne Fortune bei Castries. Das erste Government House, das an dieser Stelle errichtet worden war, wurde 1817 durch einen Hurrikan zerstört, noch bevor der Bau abgeschlossen war. Ein zweites Gebäude wurde aus Holz errichtet und 1819 fertiggestellt. Dieses Gebäude verfiel und wurde 1865 aufgegeben. Das Government House wurde daraufhin in eine ungenutzte Kaserne verlegt. Der Bau des heutigen Ziegel-Gebäudes an Stelle des ehemaligen wurde 1894 begonnen und ein Jahr später vollendet. Ursprünglich diente es als Wohnung und Amtssitz der Commissioner von Saint Lucia bis 1958, dann für die Administratoren. Seit 1967 wurde das Government House als Sitz des „Governors of Saint Lucia“ und seit der Unabhängigkeit 1979 als Sitz des Governors-General genutzt. Anlässlich der UN-Klimakonferenz in Paris 2015 verkündete die Regierung von St. Lucia, dass sie eine Solaranlage in Partnerschaft mit der non-profit-Organisation auf dem Gebäude anbringen werde, um ein Zeichen für die Wichtigkeit erneuerbarer Energien zu setzen.

This house fell into disrepair, and was abandoned by 1865. Government House then relocated to a nearby disused military barracks. Construction of the present brick-built Government House was started on the site of the previous house in 1894, and was completed a year later. It was originally used as the home and office of the Commissioners of Saint Lucia until 1958, then for the Administratiors of the island. From 1967, Government House was used by the Governors of Saint Lucia, and since Saint Lucia became an independent state in 1979 it has been used by Governors-General. At the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference, the Government of St Lucia officially announced it would be installing solar panels on the building in partnership with non-profit , in order to send a message on the importance of renewable energy.
