Historic Site

Villa Vodno, also known as the Annex, is the official workplace of the President of North Macedonia. It stands in the foothills of Vodno at the southern edge of Skopje. Built from 2004, it became the seat of the presidency in 2009 and houses the president's office and rooms for meetings and receptions. Construction began in 2004. The complex covers about 2,500 m2 (27,000 sq ft) and combines a renovated older state villa with a newly built annex, arranged over a ground floor and a multi-level upper storey; about €5 million from the state budget was spent on the new section. It contains the president's office, working premises for the presidential services, and rooms for meetings and receptions. The surrounding park was planted with cypresses, firs and other evergreens, together with lawns and flower gardens. The building hosts sessions of the national Security Council and ceremonies for the presentation of credentials by foreign ambassadors.
