Museo Militar

This chilling museum details the horrifying treatment of political prisoners, and is adorned with distorted mannequins illustrating the painful consequences of refusing to toe the government line during the military dictatorship. Ask at the military base for the museum curator.

If you speak Spanish, the curator is a fascinating source of some of the most revolting stories you are likely to hear.
