Established in Av. Salvador 364,Providencia, Region Metropolitana. Chile

The Hospital del Salvador, located in the Providencia neighbourhood of Santiago, is one of the oldest and most emblematic health institutions in Chile. Its history dates back to the 19th century, when the increase in infectious diseases, especially smallpox, prompted the construction of a new public hospital. The project was initiated through an alliance between the Faculty of Medicine and private benefactors, which allowed its foundation by presidential decree on 7 December 1871. However, construction was prolonged until 1905 due to epidemics and lack of resources, and was initially organised as a set of isolated wards to avoid contagion.

Over time, the Hospital del Salvador consolidated its role as a teaching and care institution, incorporating specialised services from the beginning of the 20th century and expanding its infrastructure. In 1985, part of its original building was declared a National Historic Monument following an earthquake. Today, the hospital continues to be a hub of the Eastern Metropolitan Health Service, covering more than 600,000 people and offering multiple specialties in an environment that combines history, heritage architecture and modern care.
