PAPAL FENCE in Chile: white bars, about 2 to 3 meters wide by 1, 5 high, which intertwine with each other, with which carabineros perform perimeter closures or critical streets prior to demonstrations, street parades and other events that require protection of public and private property. Its name derives from the fact that they were originally conceived for the visit of Pope John Paul II to Chile and South America in 1987.
