Our Mission

Promoting the personality, way of life, and vocation sense for public service of former President Eduardo Frei Montalva through the transformation of what once was his residence into a cultural and educational museum. This project seeks to contribute to the revival of interest and appreciation for a former President in the nation– especially in children, younger generations, and educators – who led important events and brought moral values to the democratic history of our nation.
