Cómo se Construyó la Casa Blanca: Los Secretos Ocultos Bajo el Edificio Más Vigilado del Mundo

Discover the extraordinary history of the White House, the most iconic presidential residence in the United States, from the laying of its cornerstone in 1792 to the major transformations it has undergone up to 2025. In this documentary, you'll learn how it was built under the presidency of George Washington, using sandstone and the work of hundreds of skilled artisans. You'll also revisit one of the most dramatic moments in its history: the devastating fire set by British forces during the War of 1812, which left only its exterior walls standing, followed by its rapid reconstruction, completed in 1817. Furthermore, we'll explore the significant renovations carried out during the 20th and 21st centuries, including the construction of the West Wing, commissioned by Theodore Roosevelt in 1902; the complete structural reconstruction ordered by Harry Truman between 1948 and 1952, when the entire interior was dismantled and reinforced with a steel frame; and the ongoing modernizations aimed at improving the security, sustainability, and technology of one of the world's most important buildings. With a reconstruction cost currently estimated at $1 billion, the White House stands as a symbol of resilience, history, and innovation, combining the preservation of its legacy with modern engineering. 🇺🇸 What secret does the White House truly hold beneath its foundations?
