Tomb of Eva Duarte Peron


Evita’s tomb

Extra measures were taken by the government to secure Evita’s tomb. There is a trapdoor in the tomb’s marble floor, which leads to a compartment that contains two coffins. Under the first compartment is a second trapdoor and a second compartment. That is where Evita’s coffin rests, about 8 meters underground. The tomb is said to be secure enough to withstand a bomb attack, even a nuclear attack. Eva Perón was the most powerful woman in Argentina, and it is said that she was the most powerful woman of South America. She quickly became a popular myth.
