The Open Sky Museum of Valparaíso

The Open Sky Museum features twenty large-scale murals painted on building walls and retaining structures across the hillside neighborhood of Valparaíso.

Students from the Catholic University Art Institute initiated the museum project in 1969, which was later postponed due to military intervention and completed in 1991.

Each mural represents different artistic styles from renowned Chilean painters of the 1940s and 1950s, including Roberto Matta and Mario Carreño.

Visitors can reach the museum by taking the Espíritu Santo funicular from Plaza Victoria and following the numbered sequence of murals through the streets.

The collection extends through a sloping artistic park with viewing points and staircases integrated into the architectural heritage of the neighborhood.
