Plaza de Armas de Puerto Montt

The central plaza features gardens, sculptures, and a monument surrounded by public buildings at the intersection of major commercial avenues in Puerto Montt.

Vicente Pérez Rosales established the plaza on February 12, 1853, at Melipulli beach, creating an entrance port for the Lakes region of Chile.

The plaza serves as a gathering space where local vendors display regional crafts, traditional food products, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year.

Multiple public transportation routes connect at this central location, providing access to neighboring districts and commercial areas of Puerto Montt.

The square earned recognition as the first public plaza in Chile to incorporate a garden, according to records from Vicente Pérez Rosales.
