Guaraculén

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guaraculén was a large hacienda, located near Villa Alegre, in the current province of Linares, in the Maule Region of Chile. Guaraculén was the birthplace of the famed Jesuit Priest, naturalist and cronist Juan Ignacio Molina (Abate Molina), who was forced to leave Chile in 1768 when the Jesuits were expelled, and settled in Bologna, Italy where he became professor of natural sciences.
