MUSEO DEL LITORAL

This museum was inaugurated in July 1978 to commemorate the first centenary of the Pacific War. The exhibition is entirely dedicated to this event of 1879 in which Bolivia lost its access to the sea. The exhibition space is divided into four rooms presenting images of the Coastal Department occupied by Chilean troops and the actors who participated in this armed conflict. There are also paintings, maps, flags, weapons, military uniforms and other historical pieces that recall this painful moment in Bolivian history.
