Which building was set aflame on August 24th, 1812?

The White House was set aflame on August 24th, 1812, during the War of 1812 between the United States and the British Empire. This event occurred as retaliation for the American attack on the city of York (now known as Toronto) in Upper Canada. British troops and Canadian militia led by Major General Robert Ross entered the capital city of Washington D.C. and set fire to multiple government buildings, including the White House, as a symbolic act of defiance against the Americans. This act left the White House severely damaged, leading to extensive rebuilding and renovations in the years that followed.
