The Kirchner Cultural Centre (Spanish: Centro Cultural Kirchner)[3][4] is a cultural centre located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is the largest of Latin America,[5][6] and the third or fourth largest in the world.[7][8]

The building was originally opened in 1928 as the Buenos Aires Central Post Office ("Palacio de Correos"),[1] operating until 2002.[9] During successive years, it was refurbished and reopened in 2015 as a cultural center.[8] It named after former president of Argentina Néstor Kirchner, who had oversaw its conversion. The name is polarizing in Argentina with the country's presidency announcing the name would be changed in March 2024.[10]

The nine-floor centre has a concert hall; five other auditoriums for theater and concerts; 18 halls for poetry readings, performance art, and other events; 40 rooms of art and history galleries totaling 15,000 square meters on six floors; 16 rehearsal rooms; and two rooftop terraces.[8][11] It is possible to reach the centre with Line B and Line E of the city's underground, at Leandro N. Alem and Correo Central respectively.
