Our visit to the Museum to Remember today was quite a contrast to yesterday´s dalliance at the Fashion Museum. Within the last ten years the Chilean government built an impressive, open, free museum that chronicles the history of the coup in 73 and the events following. They have quite a bit of footage from the day of the coup, interviews with survivors of torture and detention and neverending homages to people killed and disappeared. Remember that there are still people missing who have never been recovered.
As a building, the museum is outstanding. Lots of light and the well organized exhibits. Jorge, Pedro, and I liked the visit quite a bit but we all left feeling sad.
