history

Germany has had diplomatic relations with the South American country since 1883. The embassy was initially called Mission and was located at Kurfürstenstrasse 114 in Berlin until 1945.

From 1971 the embassy had its seat at Kronprinzenstrasse 20 in the Bonn district of Bad Godesberg . Due to the Berlin / Bonn Act , the company moved to the now (again) common German capital in 2000. A former administration building (Reichs-Kraftwagen-Betriebsverband) was expanded and converted.

The GDR established diplomatic relations with Chile in March 1971. The Chilean embassy was located at Hermann-Duncker-Strasse 92 in East Berlin (since 1992: Treskowallee ). Diplomatic relations were broken off in September 1973 after the military coup in Chile and were not resumed until 1990.
