Storage and bag rules at the Obelisco

Few landmarks say Buenos Aires quite like the Obelisco, the national historic monument standing at Plaza de la República where Avenida 9 de Julio meets Avenida Corrientes. It is the most iconic landmark of Buenos Aires, but it offers nowhere to leave luggage while you take it in. Suitcases and large bags are not allowed inside, and anyone ascending the Mirador passes through security screening first.

The exterior itself is free to visit around the clock, so you can still photograph the monument without carrying anything heavy. If you do go up, a visit to the Mirador Obelisco officially lasts 20 minutes, with hours running 9:00 to 21:00 Sundays to Wednesdays and until 23:45 Thursdays to Saturdays.

Dropping your bags at a nearby Stasher point first means you can climb without the security team turning you away. With Stasher, you can store bags from US$1.49 per bag per day at 20+ locations near the Obelisco.

Some top Stasher locations near the Obelisco include:

Hosts include local shops, hostel receptions and restaurants. Of the nearby points, 2 stay open late. Every booking comes with the Stasher Guarantee, which protects your bags up to US$13,000. Stasher storage near the Obelisco can be booked through the website or app.

Getting to the Obelisco with luggage

Carlos Pellegrini station on Line B sits a few steps from the monument, roughly a one-minute walk to the entrance; 9 de Julio station on Line D and Diagonal Norte station on Line C are also directly connected or within a few minutes' walk. The Metrobús 9 de Julio, a dedicated bus rapid transit corridor, runs right past the Obelisco as well.

Nearby sights and their own bag rules

Microcentro, the historic and financial heart of Buenos Aires, surrounds the Obelisco with office towers, the Casa Rosada, the Cabildo, and other monuments. It's well connected by several Subte lines, though the neighbourhood has no luggage storage facility provided by the city or transit authorities.

Teatro Colón, served by Carlos Pellegrini station on Line B and Tribunales station on Line D, runs guided tours daily from 10:00 to 16:45 with departures every 15 minutes. Casa Rosada, the seat of Argentina's national government, faces Plaza de Mayo and houses the president's office.

Plaza de Mayo itself, the country's historic and political heart, hosts major national events and the weekly marches of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo. The square is served by Plaza de Mayo station on Line A, Catedral station on Line D, and Bolívar station on Line E. The Museo Casa Rosada is also reachable via Subte lines A, D, and E.
