记忆及人权博物馆印象
-
An important part of Chile history on display. I would say a must for all Chile people and South Americans in general. Great location and easily accessible right from the platform of Quinta Normal metro station saves you time and not getting lost, saving taxi costs too.I did hire an audio guide but still found it hard to navigate through the museum dislays. There didnt seem to be a logical direction to take an I kept getting confused. The Video screen presentations all seemed to be in Spanish. The entry was free of charge and I felt I got enough out of it to warrant the effort.

This is the single best thing we've done in Santiago. It is overwhelming and deepened my appreciation for how the country recovered from the horrible dictatorship. It is a modern museum with many different forms of communicating information. And it is FREE! Optional English audio guides cost 2K pesos and are worth every peso for the English native speaker.

As said in previous posts, easy to get to from Quinta Normal as you can enter from the metro. Also rent the English audio: all is Spanish and impossible to follow.The museum is very well presented and a good education of the Pinochet dictatorship.The motto of "never again" is a strong message and their answer to honor human rights is equally strong.Really glad we made the effort to go.

Informative and interesting museum going through some of Chile's more recent historical struggles. If you don't speak Spanish, I would recommend getting the audio box for 2000 pesos as all the displays are in Spanish. The museum will take awhile to go through completely. Make sure to eat before and remember it will take more than 3 hours to complete.

This is a museum devoted to the military coup and subsequent dictatorship of the Pinochet regime. Very scary stuff. They are still finding bodies. Fortunately, the country reverted to democratic rule in 1990 and now is quite safe and a good place to visit.

I am really interested in the history of countries I visit. Therefore it was a must to visit this museum and I was really looking forward to it. But I was disappointed...I already knew a lot about the Chilean history especially about this part before I went to the museum. The structure of the exhibition seemed totally confusing and in some parts it felt like they just tried to fill another vitrine with unrelated stuff. Probably I just didn't get the concept of this museum. For me, the small museum de la memoria about a similar part of Argentina's history in Córdoba was much more interesting, informative and touching. The huge building and the extravagantly designed but at the same time unsubstantial and superficial exhibition gave me the impression: Look, we are caring about and dealing with our past! We spent a lot of money to show that off (while not bringing it to justice) but at least we do something!Anyway I was glad I visited the museum because I was even more interested to get to know more about the Chilean history through other sources afterwards. With my review I don't want people to keep off visiting the museum! I just want to share my personal impression and recommend to go there anyway.

Unbelievable, I spent around 3 hours in this museum. It has so much information that you don't even know where to go. A lot of videos, talks, interviews, and much more to help you get to know the history of Chile better. Free entrance.

I went early on a Sunday morning and although the entrance is free, I opted for the audio guide in English which cost 2000 pesos. I was told it would take about 2.5 hours to go round the museum - I was in there for 5. Everything is beautifully presented and you are slowly taken through the history of that terrible time. Most of the exhibits are in Spanish, but the audio guide did an excellent job of explaining everything when my Spanish failed me. Many of the audio visual exhibits are fascinating and most of them have English subtitles, so Sometimes I was so absorbed in what I was seeing, I lost all track of time. When I left I felt emotionally drained but so glad I went. Please don't leave Santiago without visiting this amazing museum.

Like many U.S. citizens my age, I had an awareness of the impact of the Pinochet regime but this was an eye-opener. An English audio guide gave us the story as we observed a well-curated and thorough set of exhibits. A solemn reminder of the lingering effect of man's inhumanity to man and a must-see if you find yourself in Santiago.

However most of the exhibits are in spanish. The human statements under 30 years of dictatorship are very powerful.
