Tumba de Gabriela Mistral, Nobel laureate monument in Montegrande, Chile.

The white stone tomb stands at the center of a circular plaza overlooking the mountains of the Elqui Valley.

Gabriela Mistral's remains were transferred from Santiago to this monument in 1960, following the directives specified in her testament.

The monument houses the first Latin American woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, recognized for her poetry in 1945.

The tomb opens daily to visitors and includes interpretative plaques explaining Mistral's contributions to Chilean literature and education.

In 2005, the tomb received the remains of Juan Miguel Godoy, known as Yin-Yin, adding a personal dimension to this memorial site.
