Castelar Park, Urban park in Badajoz, Spain.

Castelar Park is an urban park in central Badajoz, laid out on the former olive grove and orchards of the Santo Domingo convent. Its tall Washingtonia robusta palms surround a central pond where ducks and pigeons gather, and a statue of writer Carolina Coronado stands in the water. Peacocks roam freely, and a playground lies across the avenue beneath a Vauban wall bastion.

The park opened in December 1903 on the former olive grove and orchards of the Santo Domingo convent. After a windstorm destroyed much of the garden, it was rebuilt in 1941 under the direction of Juan Nogre Rauch, which gave it its present layout. Under Mayor Miguel Ángel Celdrán Matute (1996–2015) it was rehabilitated for daily use by residents.

Several monuments within the grounds honor notable figures such as writer Carolina Coronado and poet Luis Chamizo Trigueros. These tributes reflect how the space recognizes and celebrates local artistic heritage.

The space sits south of the Guadiana River and offers convenient vehicle access with ample parking. Visiting in early morning or late afternoon hours provides a more relaxed experience for exploring the grounds.

Free-roaming peacocks wander the grounds, creating unexpected encounters with these striking birds within the leisure area. These animals have become a defining characteristic that draws many people to visit.
