House Kreyenberg

The B&B Casa Kreyenberg is a house located in the patrimonial area of ValparaÌso, in a quiet neighborhood with a privileged view; it has been visited by many tourists from all over the world. Near the house you will find some of the best restaurants of the city, three famous viewpoints and three elevators, typical of our harbor city. Walking along Avenida Alemania you will get to Camogli Viewpoint and to "La Sebastiana", the famous house-museum of the great poet, Pablo Neruda. From our house you can walk to the the plain of ValparaÌso where you can visit the harbor, take a trip in a boat and see the city. And if you enjoy the nightlife, the house is near the best pubs and discos in the city.

The Kreyenbergs, originally from Riga, Letonia, were a couple who came from Germany around 1820. They lived in Calle Montealegre in Cerro Alegre, until around 1940, when this house was commisioned by Mr. Herbert Kreyenberg and built by Mr. Brunt the architect. Mr. Kreyenberg and his sister Gertrud lived here until their death. Many memories of this house have been preserved by the owners, such as furniture and the photographs Mr. Herbert Kreyenberg took of ValparaÌso and its surroundings, when he took trips to the beach or went to the country with his friends, at the beginning of the 20th century.

The Kreyenberg house tells the story of a family of immigrants who, like many others, fell in love with ValparaÌso and decided to stay in this charming and beautiful city. We invite you to visit our harbor city as these immigrants did and found their home.
