Castro is the capital city of Chiloé Province and the third oldest city in Chile, founded in 1567. Located on Chiloé Island, the largest island in the Chiloé Archipelago, Castro is known for its distinctive cultural heritage that blends indigenous Huilliche traditions with Spanish colonial influences.
The city is particularly famous for its UNESCO World Heritage churches, known as the Churches of Chiloé, and its distinctive palafitos - colorful wooden houses built on stilts along the waterfront. These architectural elements reflect the unique cultural identity of the region.
Castro serves as an important cultural and economic center for the archipelago, where traditional crafts, folklore, and mythology remain integral parts of daily life. The city's markets and cultural spaces showcase local handicrafts, woolen textiles, and traditional wooden craftsmanship, while also preserving the rich mythological traditions of Chiloé.
