Clandestine detention and torture center presenting a memorial to the large numbers of people executed there.

The alleyways of the neighbourhood were home to a former clandestine DINA detention and torture centre under the Pinochet dictatorship. More than a thousand people passed through London 38 and many of them were executed. A memorial space was set up and on October 12, 2005, the site was declared a Historic Monument of Chile, at the request of Colectivo London 38. This building, which before the military coup d'état was a headquarters of the Chilean Socialist Party, was the first clandestine torture centre in the metropolitan region of Santiago.

Difficile d’imaginer la présence d’un centre de torture dans un bâtiment bourgeois au centre d’un quartier tranquille à deux pas de l’avenue principale de cette ville. L’espace est bien documenté et le centre propose de nombreuses conférences. Sa visite est nécessaire pour mieux comprendre ce pays et surtout sa population. Remarquer les plaques souvenirs scellés dans les pavés du trottoir

Située dans le barrio paris londres, le bâtiment Londres 38 est l'ex quartier générale de la répression sous Pinochet, transformée en musée. Petit bâtiment de 3 étages que l'on visite librement 'entrée gratuite). Peu de meubles mais de nombreuses explications sur la torture sous Pinochet. Quelques impacts de balles dans les murs, temoignages de survivants. Visite qui fait froid dans le dos.
