Seguro Obrero Building, Art Deco office building in Civic District, Santiago, Chile

The Seguro Obrero Building stands 12 stories tall at the intersection of Morande and Moneda streets, near La Moneda Palace and Plaza de la Constitucion.

Completed in 1931 under architect Ricardo Gonzalez Cortes, this structure marked a milestone as the tallest office building in Chile during that period.

The building represents the architectural evolution of Santiago, displaying geometric patterns and decorative elements characteristic of Art Deco design principles.

The Ministry of Justice of Chile operates from this location at 107 Morande Street, maintaining regular office hours for governmental services.

In September 1938, the building became the site of a significant confrontation between the National Socialist Movement and police forces.
