Image?[edit]

The article says that the palace was built in 1956. The only image is a grainy black and white from 1947. A) How is it possible an image exists from 1947 if the palace was only built in 1956? B) How is it possible there is not a better image of this place? WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 21:23, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the image. Images available from the website of the Presidency of the Republic of Lebanon (sadly, none available copyright-free) show a building that is distinctly different from the one shown in the 1947 image. That may have been a building that was demolished to make way for the new building, but it is not Baabda Palace. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 21:30, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
