The 1837 Valdivia earthquake struck south-central Chile on November 7. Together with earthquakes in 1575 and 1737 the earthquake is among the historical predecessors to the great 1960 earthquake. The rupture zone was roughly from Valdivia to the south. It was felt in the cities of Concepción, Valdivia and Ancud. The earthquake was also felt by the crew whaling ships in Guafo Island and Chonos Archipelago. Various landslides were triggered in Chiloé and people are reported to have been thrown to the ground in Valdivia. In contrast in Concepción the shakings were moderate. As reported in various coastal localities the ground rose as result of the earthquake.

| - The 1837 Valdivia earthquake struck south-central Chile on November 7. Together with earthquakes in 1575 and 1737 the earthquake is among the historical predecessors to the great 1960 earthquake. The rupture zone was roughly from Valdivia to the south. It was felt in the cities of Concepción, Valdivia and Ancud. The earthquake was also felt by the crew whaling ships in Guafo Island and Chonos Archipelago. Various landslides were triggered in Chiloé and people are reported to have been thrown to the ground in Valdivia. In contrast in Concepción the shakings were moderate. As reported in various coastal localities the ground rose as result of the earthquake. Decades later while surveying southern Chile's coasts Francisco Vidal Gormaz was told of islands that been submerged and some that had emerged as a consequence of the earthquake. The earthquake caused a tsunami that struck Hawaii, what is now French Polynesia, and Japan. In Japan the tsunami flooded rice fields, destroyed salmon traps and broke into salt evaporation ponds causing significant economic losses. (en)
- El Terremoto de Valdivia de 1837 fue un terremoto de 8,0 grados en la escala de Richter que azotó a la ciudad de Valdivia a las 8:00 del día 7 de noviembre de 1837. Con calidad de terremoto fue percibido en las VIII, IX, X y XIV regiones. El movimiento telúrico fue percibido desde Concepción hasta Chiloé probablemente. El gran terremoto que ha experimentado en este pueblo en la mañana de este día, se puede asegurar que sea el mayor de los hasta aquí acontecidos ya que con dificultad podía un hombre sostenerse en pie. Las dos únicas iglesias que había en este pueblo, y todos los edificios fiscales se han arruinado completamente; y si no les han cabido igual suerte a las demás casas de esta población ha contribuido sin duda la circunstancia de ser ellas de madera (...) al saber que no ha perecido una sola persona Comunicado del Intendente de Valdivia, Isidro Vergara al Intendente de Concepción, Manuel Bulnes [1] Se estima que las muertes alcanzaron a 12 personas. El hecho que en Valdivia exista una gran cantidad de bosques significa que en la construcción de las casas prevalece este material y no el adobe que se usa en la zona central de Chile lo que significa menor cantidad de fallecidos en los terremotos (sin maremoto).
