Monumento Al Ovejero

Reviewed By 716sachink - Plainview, United States

Monumento al Ovejero (Sheepdog Monument) is located within a short walking distance from the municipal cemetery of Punta Arenas. It is an important monument and artistic feature of Punta Arenas. It depicts a rural worker engaged in the harsh activities that contributed to the wealthy livestock industry of southern Chile. The monument stretches for about 100 feet and includes 12 life-size sculptures. At the rear of the monument is a shepherd with a horse and his faithful sheepdog. Walking in front of them is a herd of nine sheep. The intricate details of the shepherd’s coat and hat, which appear to be blowing in the wind, are noteworthy. Would certainly very highly recommend visiting this monument up close to any traveler in Punta Arenas.
