Abdelsatta Palace is the official residence of the Head of the Commonwealth in the Principality of Alekthos. It is located in the municipality of Batrawi.
Abdelsatta Palace was built in 1997 by order of High Queen Agwene. Since its construction, it has normally only been directly inhabited by the Sovereign on a few ceremonial occasions. When no member or guest of a member of the Danaan royal family is in residence, the palace is open to tourists.
The palace itself is designed to have an eastern feel, relying heavily on geometrical and repetitive forms and surfaces elaborately decorated with glazed tiles, carved stucco, patterned brickwork, floral motifs, and calligraphy. The heights of the palace consist of five great domes which can be seen from anywhere in the town.
