Monumento a Carabineros de Chile, Santiago de Chile

Monumento a Carabineros de Chile, Santiago de Chile, Police memorial statue in central Santiago, Chile.

Monumento a Carabineros de Chile is a memorial in central Santiago built from three tall concrete columns covered with stone cladding. The central pillar rises to about 23 meters and displays the Carabineros shield at its base.

The memorial was inaugurated on April 26, 1989, honoring members who died in service since the Carabineros were established in 1927. This dedication reflected growing public recognition of those who had given their lives for the force.

A female figure standing on the central pillar holds draped cloth, representing those who gave their lives while serving. The monument reflects how the Carabineros remain important to the city's identity and public memory.

The memorial is located at 200 Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins Avenue near Plaza Baquedano, easily accessible by public transport and on foot. The site is in a central area with good visibility and open access at all times.

The structure was designed by Chilean sculptor Héctor Román Latorre and is locally known by the name Gloria y Victoria. This unofficial designation reflects how residents have adopted the monument into their understanding of the city's landscape.
