About this picture: The Sans-Souci Palace was the royal residence of King Henri I (better known as Henri Christophe) of Haiti, Queen Marie-Louise and their twin daughters.

Construction of the palace started in 1810 and was completed in 1813. It is located in the town of Milot, Nord Department.

Its name translated from French means "without worry."

Close to the Palace is the renowned mountaintop fortress; the Citadelle Laferriere, built under decree by Henri Christophe to repel a feared French invasion.

France, the former colonial power in Haiti, recognized Haiti's independence in 1804.
