The Palace of Sans-Souci, or Sans-Souci Palace (French: Palais Sans Souci [palɛ sɑ̃ susi]), was the principal royal residence of Henry I, King of Haiti, better known as Henri Christophe. It is located in the commune of Milot, approximately five kilometres (3 mi) northeast of the Citadelle Laferrière, and thirteen kilometres (8 mi) southwest of the Three Bays Protected Area. Being among the first buildings constructed in a free Haiti after the Haitian Revolution, the Palace and the neighboring Citadelle, are Haitian icons and global symbols of liberty, and were inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1982.
