Monument of Santiago (Monumento a los Héroes de la Restauración) Tours and Activities
2 Reviews
This eight-story structure located in downtown Santiago was built by the former dictator Trujillo and later became a monument praising the soldiers who battled for Dominican Republic’s independence from Spain. It was built in 1944 and designed by Henry Gazon Bona.
Travelers will find this stunning white monument, which stretches high into the sky, at the city’s east end. Visitors can learn how the Monument of Santiago was originally erected to honor Rafael Leonidas Trujillo and later was re-dedicated to fearless soldiers who fought against the Spaniards between 1863 and 1865. It’s the perfect place to take in vast city views from atop the hill and the nearby park is an ideal spot for an afternoon picnic under the shade of a tree.
The monument can be visited independently, or seen as part of a Santiago city tour.

I'll take you to a journey into the everyday life of my hometown Santiago, we will meet at the most iconic building of the city, the Monumento a los Heroes de la Restauracion, then make our way through a cute little neighborhood filled with murals, we will stop at local street food stands and taste my favorite typical snacks, you can join the local men playing domino in the corner of a "colmado" or dance a song or two right in the sidewalk. After that we will head into the center of downtown to checkout the local market, perfect for buying souvenirs, and look at some of the cities historic buildings to learn a little about its story.
