Parque por la Paz Villa GrimaldiVilla Grimaldi is a large property on the foothills of the Andes in the commune of Peñalolén, in Santiago de Chile. This place was one of the largest detention and torture centers during the military dictatorship led by Augusto Pinochet. It has been transformed into the Villa Grimaldi Peace Park Museum thanks to the work of the Villa Grimaldi Peace Park Corporation and the support of social organizations, neighbors, human rights organizations and relatives of detained and disappeared persons.

La MonedaDuring the coup d'état of 1973, the building inhabited by Allende and some of his supporters was bombed by cannons from the Chilean Army and by Sura 3 rockets from two British-made Hawker Hunter aircraft of the Chilean Air Force, leaving it partially destroyed.13 The north facade, as well as the pavilion between the Los Cañones and Los Naranjos courtyards, were the places most affected by the rockets and by the fire that spread from the corner of Moneda and Teatinos streets to about twenty-five meters to the south, near the Plaza de la Libertad (today, Plaza de la Ciudadanía). This attack also meant the loss of invaluable treasures that were accumulated during years of government. Among the lost goods are the aforementioned Act of Independence of 1818 and the original O'Higgins pickaxe.7

Barrio Paris LondresThis place was a former communal headquarters of the Chilean Socialist Party, which after the coup d'état of September 11, 1973 and until the end of 1974 became a clandestine detention and torture center of the DINA. As it was the first period of repression, the systems of torture, disappearance and extermination used in this place were very brutal.2 Tribute to Modesto Segundo Espinoza in front of Londres 38. Its importance is given by the fact that it is the first link in a chain of detention centers used by the DINA in the Metropolitan Region, in its campaign against the Revolutionary Left Movement (MIR), first, and other organizations of the Chilean left, such as the Socialist and Communist parties; and which also included the clandestine facilities located at José Domingo Cañas N° 1367, Venda Sexy and Villa Grimaldi.
