We’ll begin our day by picking you up from your accommodations in Santiago, then journey to our first destination - Cementerio General, the city’s graveyard.
The cemetery essentially functions as a fresh-air gallery, built nearly two hundred years ago. Here, we’ll explore Chile’s recent history by visiting the resting places of various noteworthy individuals. Of particular interest is Patio 29, a site of historical significance due to the clandestine burials of thousands during the rule of Augusto Pinochet.
Our next stop is the Museum of Memory and Human Rights, a venue dedicated to illustrating the atrocities committed during the 1973-1990 military dictatorship.
Ending our tour at Villa Grimaldi, we’ll visit a former community arts center occupying three acres of land. This site, however, bears the scar of Pinochet’s regime, as it was repurposed into a political detention and torture center known as Cuartel Terranova.
