Palacio Policial de Mendoza
Palacio Policial de Mendoza, Police headquarters and memory site in central Mendoza, Argentina
The Police Palace contains two levels of cells and detention areas, including a basement and mezzanine used during the military dictatorship period.
Between 1975 and 1980, Department 2 of Information operated as a clandestine detention center under the control of the Third Army Corps.
The Memory Space now houses a library with recovered books and the Provincial Memory Archive, documenting the history of human rights violations.
The facility offers guided tours for educational groups and maintains regular hours for visitors interested in learning about Argentina's military dictatorship.
A room known as the 'battery room' served as the primary interrogation location, with survivors documenting the existence of additional torture chambers.
