  • Patio 29 is a potter's field burial ground within the Cementerio General (General Cemetery) located in Santiago, Chile. It was used for burying victims of the 1973 coup d'état and the military government that subsequently took power under dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet. Many of these victims buried at Patio 29 were mutilated, tortured, and executed by the military regime. It began to be used for unannounced burials in the 1970s, until information of its use was anonymously leaked to the public. When a democratically-elected government returned to Chile in 1991, the government began a 15-year effort (1991–2006) to exhume and identify the remains. In 2005, it was discovered that DNA tests reported significant identification errors and a new identification database was created in 2007. Exhumation authorities report that the site has been fully exhumed, although families of the victims contest. While many of the remains have been identified, others remain unknown. Several victims thought to have been interred at Patio 29 are unaccounted for. In 2006, Patio 29 became protected by the Chilean government as a national monument—the first cemetery to be so designated. The site serves as a memorial to the human rights movement and to honour the 1973 coup's disappeared victims.
