Mirador Lukas Museum

The Mirador Lukas Museum is an art museum in Cerro Conception that displays around 100 graphic works in a 19th-century building. The collection is located at Paseo Gervasoni in Valparaiso's historic district and focuses on the work of cartoonist Renzo Pecchenino.

The artist Renzo Pecchenino began his career in the early 1950s drawing caricatures for the newspaper La Union de Valparaiso under the pen name Lukas. His work documented decades of social change and made him an important figure in Chilean cartooning.

The museum displays original illustrations and caricatures that show everyday life and society in Chile through the eyes of artist Renzo Pecchenino. These works help visitors understand the social issues and political moments that shaped the nation.

The museum is easily accessible on a hillside in the historic district with good views of the city. It is best to visit during the regular opening hours, and guides are available on site to help with your visit.

The exhibition space preserves a reconstructed studio of the artist where his original drawing tools and personal items remain in their original positions. This gives visitors a direct sense of how the artist worked and his creative process.
