Santa Lucía Hill (Spanish: Cerro Santa Lucía) is a small hill in downtown Santiago, Chile. It borders on Alameda del Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins in the south (there is a metro station near the hill whose name is homonymous), Santa Lucía Street in the west and Victoria Subercaseaux. Santa Lucia Hill has an altitude of 629 m and a height of 69 m. It has a surface of 65.300m². Adorned previously with ornate facades, stairways, and fountains, today an adjacent metro station is named for it. Atop the hill, there is a vista point unsurpassed inside Santiago except by Cerro San Cristóbal. It is a frequent spot for tourists visiting the city.
