palacio sara braun

a time gone by, this mansion illustrates the wealth and power of Sara Braun. Plush, lush and luxurious through out. Sad in a way to see places like this as simple museums rather than actually being lived in. Gorgeous period furniture and decorating. Worth the visit to get a feel for that time as well as Sara herself, who is a very interesting woman. Visit her mausoleum also.

A fun visit, liked the care taken to present views of the times, rooms decorated in original furnishings. Interesting gallery in basement!

part of it is the old house that you self tour some of the rooms on two floors, very nice wood work. Back part of house is a hotel which you sort of exit through. Didn't cost much and we enjoyed it.

This mansion is part of the Punta Arenas landmark tour. It overlooks the plaza, and offers fascinating insight into Punta Arenas a hundred years ago. It is amazing that immigrants from Europe built such lavish places to live in such a remote part of the world.

Opulent with history. They give you dusters to wear over your boots! There is some interesting historical stuff too, all in Spanish but there is an english written guide

This is really nothing more than an old mansion but it really is pretty. Once you are done here, slide into the adjoining bar for a drink - it's almost as lovely.

Admission is so cheap ($1?) you need to go to understand the history of the region, but the tiny English brochure is so poorly translated and so brief that you don't grasp as much of the history as you could if they would put more effort into it. You walk through a few rooms and upstairs, on your own, and that is it. Takes 10 min.

You can enjoy this exhibit of the home and lifestyle of Sarah Braun. The furnishings, wall decor, carpentry all show the opulence and level of living she attained. Some areas are in need of a little TLC. make sure you visit the Braun-Menendez museum too.

Do visit this beautiful mansion. Really incredible to see this in Punta Arenas. You will be impressed by the luxurious environment Sarah Braun was living in!

Tienen muebles de la época y se puede visitar casi toda la casa. Sería mucho mejor con un guía que contará la historia familiar.

lugar interesante para aprender mas de la historia de Punta Arenas, además el palacio tiene una importante arquitectura digna de conocer

Vale la pena ir y recorrer el "Palacio" y recordar mientras se recorre que fue construido a comienzos del siglo XIX en el fin del mundo. No deja de sorprender cómo se vivía en un lugar tan lejano y con condiciones extremas con un lujo que aún hoy sorprende. Vale la pena, especialmente ir con niños. La muestra de la colonización de la región también sirve para dar contexto a la impresionante mansión. Si pueden ir a la cocina y subterráneo, bajen!

Interesante ver el lujo y la opulencia con que vivieron los estancieros de principios del siglo XX, considerando que estaban en el "fin del mundo" un palacio así es surreal. Me recuerda el palacio Cousiño de Santiago

Muy bello y bien conservado, pero una pena que se muestre tan poco del palacio, la mayoría de la habitaciones están selladas, ya que pertenecen al hotel o al club de la unión.

Você pode apreciar esta exposição da casa e vida de Sarah Braun. Os móveis, decoração de parede, carpintaria todos mostrar a opulência e nível de vida ela atingido.
