Castillo Wulff
Located on Avenida Marina, the castle dates from approximately 1880. During this period Teodoro Von Schroeders owned the Cerro Castillo area and he later turned it into a recreation zone.

In 1919 the owner decided to build a tower next to the sea. The new tower and the rest of the building are joined together by a glass bridge and from the tower you can watch the waves crash against the rocks on the seashore.

In 1959 the castle was taken over by Viña del Mar City Council and on the 17th of September 1960 a museum was opened there.
