Palacio Herquíñigo, 19th century palace in Santiago, Chile
The Palacio Herquíñigo exhibits French architectural elements with iron gates, balconies, and marquees along its continuous facade at República Street 290.
Built in 1919 by architect Ricardo Larraín Bravo for businessman Alejandro Herquíñigo Gómez, the palace represented the economic success of mining families.
The palace features an imperial marble staircase, stained glass windows, spacious halls, and gardens that reflect the French influence in Chilean architecture.
Currently functioning as part of Universidad Nacional Andrés Bello, the building includes modern internet connectivity and high-quality projection systems in classrooms.
The building underwent careful restoration of original wooden floors, walls, cornices, doors, and windows while maintaining its architectural characteristics.
