Edificio Hucke, Historical university building in Valparaíso, Chile.

Edificio Hucke is a five-story building with exposed metal framework and industrial-style design in central Valparaíso. The structure houses classrooms, laboratories, and administrative offices for the Faculty of Engineering at the university.

German architect Otto Anwandter assembled the building between 1908 and 1910 from metal parts shipped from Europe, for the Hucke chocolate and biscuit factory. The factory operated there until 1982, when it moved to Santiago under pressure from competition after the economic opening of the military dictatorship. The electricity company Chilquinta bought the building in the late 1980s and worked there for thirty years, leaving after the 2010 earthquake. The Universidad de Valparaíso acquired it in 2012 and opened it as an educational building in 2014.

Originally a cookie factory, the building transformed into an academic space and now shapes the face of engineering education in the city. Students use the rooms daily for classes and practical work, connecting the site's industrial past with modern teaching.

The building stands in the El Almendral neighbourhood, one block from Parque Italia and steps from Avenida Brasil, within the university district along that avenue. It is an active Faculty of Engineering site, so classrooms and offices are not open to the public; the metal structure is best viewed from the street.

The construction used a mechanical assembly system with bolts and rivets, typical of early 20th-century industrial architecture. These connection techniques show how craftsmanship and engineering merged in that era before welding became the standard method.
