Lonely Planet review

The absorbing Museo Histórico Nacional documents colonial and republican history. The displays include ornate ecclesiastic objects, early colonial furniture and the weapons and personal effects of Chilean liberation heroes. The museum is also strong on the country's industrial history but skirts around the 1973 military coup. There's also a small room with Mapuche jewelry and artifacts.
