Sitio de memoria Parque por la Paz Villa Grimaldi

This guide to Villa Grimaldi in Santiago follows the 226 people who came through its gate and never walked back out, and the family that bulldozed the actual detention center in 1987, hoping to build housing over it before survivors and human rights groups stopped them. It traces how former prisoners walked the grounds with architects when the park finally opened in 1997, rebuilding the water tower and cells from memory and testimony alone. You'll hear about the drawings one prisoner once scratched onto his cell wall, and the rose garden planted by survivors. Walk toward the western corner to find the wall of names.
