Memorial Puente Bulnes, Muro de la Memoria y Plaza Joan Alsina, Memorial site in Santiago, Chile

The memorial consists of three elements: Plaza Juan Alsina functioning as a chapel, the MOAC Wall, and the Memory Wall along the Mapocho River.

The Bulnes Bridge Memorial commemorates the victims of human rights violations during the first months of the military dictatorship in Chile after the 1973 coup.

The Memorial Wall displays over 950 photographs of individuals who disappeared during the dictatorship, documenting those without photographic records through artistic interpretation.

The memorial holds an annual mass on the Sunday following September 19th, led by priests from local parishes to honor Father Juan Alsina.

The MOAC mural depicts Christ carried by Mapocho waters, Alsina's execution, and people recovering bodies from the river.
