The Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts (Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes or MNBA) is located in Santiago, Chile. It was founded in 1880 and is one of the oldest museums in South America dedicated to the exhibition and promotion of visual arts.

The museum's collection includes works from Chilean artists such as Pedro Lira, Alfredo Valenzuela Puelma, and Camilo Mori, as well as works from international artists such as Van Gogh, Monet, and Picasso. The museum's collection has been growing steadily since its founding and now holds over 3,000 works of art.

The MNBA is housed in a neoclassical building that was designed by Chilean architect Emile Jecquier in 1910. The building has been recently renovated and expanded to accommodate the museum's growing collection. The museum's permanent collection is displayed across four floors of galleries that cover the history of Chilean art from the colonial period to the present day.

In addition to the permanent collection, the museum hosts temporary exhibitions that showcase the work of contemporary artists from Chile and around the world. The museum also offers a variety of educational programs, including guided tours, workshops, and lectures.

The MNBA is considered one of the most important cultural institutions in Chile and is a must-visit for anyone interested in art and culture. Admission to the museum is free, and it is open every day except for Mondays.
