Background and detail
Background. The Dar Hassan Pacha is an 18th-century palace situated in the Casbah of Algiers, Algeria. The supplied sources describe the building itself rather than the broader history of the Regency of Algiers.
Completion in 1791. The palace was built in 1791, the date given for its completion. The legacy record specifies January 1791, but the supplied passage dates the building only to the year, so the month cannot be confirmed from the sources.
Patron and later use. The palace belonged to Hassan III Pasha, who signed a treaty with the United States on September 5, 1795. After 1830 it became the winter residence of the French Governor of Algiers, and in 1839 it was completely remodelled, with the entrance changed and a new façade added.
