Punta Arenas is a commune and the capital city of Chile's southernmost region, Magallanes and Antartica Chilena. The city was officially renamed Magallanes in 1927, but in 1938 it was changed back to Punta Arenas. It is the largest city south of the 46th parallel south.
Sitting by the Strait of Magellan Punta Arenas was established originally as a tiny penal colony in 1848 but became during the 19th increasingly large and important as international trade across the straits grew and the countryside around experienced a gold rush and a sheep farming boom around 1900.
