The history of this important building dates back over 100 years ago, when AgustÃn Ross dreamed of at the inlet of Pichilemu a major project that included these recreational facilities and leisure as it was the Casino, hotel, park, the terraces of the main beach, the avenue of palm trees, a gasometer and spas at sea.
In 1904-1906 large casino was built, the first nationwide, gaining Pichilemu a luxury spa profile that earned him the name, at the time of the "Chilean Biarritz, but had no port. Don Agustin Ross died a few months before another of his big dreams, the arrival of the railway station of Palmilla, in 1926.
The state of the Monument product is bad because of the deterioration of the roof during those years has filtered water and moisture permanently.
This is a simple view of the damaged wood interior partitions and the great frame of the roof of the attic, which is wood roble.El current owner is the City of Pichilemu who will who will be the Cultural Corporation Pichilemu and manage the building, where its exhibition spaces allow remodeling of art, sculptures and crafts workshops, a large library and cafeteria Pacific rooms for cultural activities in the coastal region of O'Higgins.
