Casa Central de la Universidad de Chile, Neoclassical university building on Alameda avenue, Santiago, Chile
The Casa Central building features two central courtyards named after Ignacio Domeyko and Andres Bello, connected by corridors leading to administrative offices.
Construction of the Casa Central began in 1863 under architect Lucien Henault and builder Fermin Vivaceta, marking the first multi-story structure on Alameda avenue.
The Salon de Honor, supported by Doric columns, serves as a three-level auditorium for academic ceremonies and cultural events of the University of Chile.
Located at 1058 Alameda Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins, the building houses the university rectorate, ceremonial rooms, and the Andres Bello Archives.
A Clemens Riefler clock from Munich installed in 1929 remains on the facade, marking time for generations of students and faculty members.
