This property, built in 1910, belonged to Don Agustín Délano Ross until 1912. In 1947 he sold this property to Mr. Enrique Shiappacasse Moltedo.



On September 28, 1973, it was acquired by the Illustrious Municipality of Viña del Mar. Since 1986 the Francisco Fonck Archaeological and Natural History Museum has occupied these premises. The latter stands out for displaying in its garden an authentic moai brought in 1951, directly from Easter Island.



The Museum has an important collection of this insular area, constituting one of the most complete of its kind, which allows to visualize the Rapa Nui culture and civilization.
