Parque del tío Jorge, Public park in Arrabal district, Zaragoza, Spain
The park covers 151,538 square meters of green space, featuring an artificial lake with a wooden bridge leading to a small island in its center.
The park honors Jorge Ibor y Casamayor, a farmer who led local resistance against French troops during the First Siege of Zaragoza in 1808.
The central monument stands 17 meters tall, with a 2.3-meter stone statue of Tío Jorge created by sculptor Ángel Orensanz at its base.
Visitors can access sports courts, children's play areas, a bar kiosk, and multiple resting spots distributed throughout the landscaped grounds.
Art students from Zaragoza Art School created sculptures from fallen trees in 2002, adding natural art elements to the park's landscape.
