Teatro de los Mineros de Lota, National monument theatre in Lota, Chile.

The Teatro de los Mineros de Lota stands as a prominent structure with a capacity of 2400 seats in its main auditorium and additional galleries for 4000 spectators.

Built between 1954 and 1957, the theatre was financed by the local miners' union during the peak of coal mining activities in the Biobío Region.

The theatre walls display murals by artist Julio Escámez depicting the daily lives and traditions of the mining community in detailed compositions.

Located at Galvarino Street 201 facing the main square, the theatre includes offices, public restrooms, dressing rooms, and recreational spaces on the upper floor.

The structure represents the first modern architecture example in the Biobío Region and received its national monument status in August 2009.
