Take a guided tour with Pedro, the grandson of the founder Antonio Felmer. Impressive dedication to preserving and restoring old artefacts and keeping this historic place open to the public. A must visit if you want to learn about the origins of the settlers in this area.

My family and I went there without high expectations. I mean, on paper, how much can you expect from an antique cars museum in Puyehue? I was proven wrong, the place is awesome. It would have been enough with the cars, which are gorgeous, but there you can also find a beautiful collection of antique toys that made my kids go crazy. We even had the chance to have a chat with don Bernardo Eggers, founder and owner of the museum, who told us the history of the place and shows in every word how much he loves the place. I highly recommend having lunch at the museum's cafeteria. It is a 100-years old house with great inexpensive food.

Just happened to stumble on this gem. The owner/curator played a tune for me as I admired his collection of various accordions. He also repairs and refurbishes them. His passion for the instrument shines through.

The "Ruta de las Iglesias Patrimoniales de Chiloe" starts here. It is a small museum, but it is very informative and fun. It is a well spent hour visiting this museum, especially if you do the "Ruta de las Iglesias", and if you do not do the Ruta, the visit to this museum is a must.

This is a free museum that goes through the history of the Isla de Chiloé in terms of colonization and civilization, religion, and natural elements of the island. They have lots to read and look at inside, from pottery to weavings to religious elements, and lots of things outside as well, including a ship and a blue whale skeleton. Very interesting place to visit to get more information about the island and it's history.
