Parque Por La Paz
Worth visiting!
A review of this place — 1 year ago
The Parque por la Paz was once Villa Grimaldi, an estate where prisoners (political dissidents) were detained and tortured during the Pinochet era. When I visited, my tour guide was a prisoner who had survived. The fact that many of the original structures of Villa Grimaldi have not been retained actually makes this a haunting place to walk around, since the daily workings of the estate are left almost entirely to the visitor’s imagination. Definitely a site to visit if you’re interested in 20th century Chilean and/or Latin American history and cultural memory.
