Ushuaia
Über uns
How did an island of sea hunters become a prison and later Argentina’s southern hub? Why did native people live in the cold without clothes? Where is the real “Lighthouse at the End of the World”from Jules Verne’s novel? How do you build a house the Fuegian way?

Werden Sie unser Lokalkurator
Sind Sie bereit, Ihre Hobbys in ein Geschäft zu verwandeln?
We’ll start at the old prison, but don’t worry, it’s a museum now.
Here you’ll find fascinating stories about the early days of life on the island and its pioneers, tales of repeat offenders, colonial fashion, and Ushuaia’s own gingerbread-style houses.
We don’t go inside the museum — only into its courtyards and around the exterior.

2
Avenida Prefectura Naval Argentina
We’ll walk to the Prefectura Naval. It was the navy and their service that founded the city here.
How did a small military outpost at the end of the world turn into a town of nearly 100,000 people in just a century? What was life in Ushuaia like before airplanes arrived? We’ll talk about that. And we’ll also see examples of traditional early 20th-century architecture.
15 Minuten
3
Museum vom Ende der Welt
Your next stop is the End of the World Museum. In its hidden courtyard, we’ll talk about the history of the Beagle Channel and what it’s like today.
Who lived on these harsh shores before Europeans arrived? What fires did Ferdinand Magellan see on the coast? And was it true that some local tribes practiced cannibalism?
20 Minuten
4
Kreuzfahrthafen Ushuaia
We’ll talk about what Ushuaia is like today — how many cruise ships arrive each season, and how many of them sail to Antarctica.
You’ll also learn how to catch a last-minute deal for an Antarctic trip, and you can take a souvenir photo with the famous “End of the World” sign to show everyone back home how far you’ve made it!

5
Monumento Antiguos Pobladores de Ushuaia
At the Monument to Pioneers and Old Settlers, I’ll tell you about Ushuaia’s immigrant past and present — how Croatians and Italians found their way to the end of the world, and what the albatross has to do with it.
15 Minuten
6
Feria Artesanal Ushuaia
The Paseo de Artesanos craft fair is a small covered market in the city center where local artisans sell wool goods, jewelry, and wood or leather crafts. It’s a great place to feel the city’s authentic side and support local makers. We’ll stop by briefly to see real Fuegian handcrafts.
10 Minuten
7
Barco Saint Christopher
The waterfront, the sunken ship, and the Old Town. Italians, English, Germans, Romanians — you’ll find people from all over the world here.
As we walk, you’ll get a sense of how different nationalities left their mark on Tierra del Fuego, and how today the island brings together immigrant stories from across the globe.

Iglesia parroquial de Ushuaia
The Salesians arrived in Ushuaia in the late 19th century, bringing education and faith to this remote land. They built the city’s first Catholic church and later the Don Bosco school, which became a center of learning and community life. Their legacy shaped Ushuaia’s early spiritual and social foundation.

Kartell Ushuaia
The USHUAIA sign by the bay is the city’s most iconic spot — a symbol of the “End of the World.” Installed in 2016, it marks the gateway to Antarctica. It’s the perfect place for a photo with the mountains and ships in the background.
