Edificio de la Bolsa de Valores de Valparaíso, Historic stock exchange building in Valparaíso, Chile.
The Edificio de la Bolsa de Valores de Valparaíso is a five-story structure located at the corner of Prat and Urriola streets, featuring a distinctive cylindrical corner tower. This tower is crowned by a French-style cupola with windows that serves as a visual landmark in the area.
The building was inaugurated in 1915 and served as the seat of the Valparaíso Stock Exchange for over a century. Its financial operations came to an end in 2018, marking the close of a major chapter in the region's economic history.
The structure is located within the Typical Zone of Prat Street, a heritage conservation area since 2001. It reflects early 20th-century architectural style and continues to shape how the financial district looks today.
The building is now accessible to visitors following its acquisition by the Federico Santa María Technical University in 2019. It has been transformed into a center for innovation and entrepreneurship, making it easier to explore the interior.
The building's distinctive corner cupola was designed after French models to evoke European trading centers of that era. This choice reflected the international influence that the port city held during its period of economic prosperity.
