Jardins de la Tamarita

Jardins de la Tamarita, Historic urban park in Sant Gervasi-la Bonanova, Spain.

Jardins de la Tamarita is a park in Sant Gervasi-la Bonanova, Barcelona, laid out in 1918 by Nicolau Maria Rubió i Tudurí on the grounds of the Frare Blanc estate. It has two parts: the ornamental garden around the 1849 neoclassical house, now the Fundació Blanquerna, and a wooded hollow used as a children's play area. The garden side splits into a romantic landscaped section and a classicist one, with ponds, fountains, statues and stairways along the former Frare Blanc stream.

In 1848 Feliu Palmerola sold a vineyard plot called La Tamarita to manufacturer Antoni Camps, who in 1849 built a neoclassical house-tower designed by Jaume Feliu i Castelló. In 1853 Camps sold the estate to Josep Antoni Salom i Jacas. At the start of the 20th century cotton industrialist Llorenç Mata bought part of the estate; after his death in 1911 his nephew Alfred Mata commissioned Nicolau Maria Rubió i Tudurí to lay out the gardens. The estate passed into public ownership in 1993 and was restored between 1994 and 1995 by Antoni Falcón.

The Plaça dels Quatre Continents takes its name from four sculptures by Virginio Arias meant to represent the continents, though the Europe figure was never made or has been lost and a Roman general stands in its place. Nearby, a fountain with carved children and another with frogs acting as jets show the garden's playful sculpture.

The park offers children's play areas and table tennis facilities for different activities and recreational options. Visiting times vary by season, so checking current access hours beforehand helps plan your visit appropriately.

The garden holds a Wollemia nobilis, a conifer believed extinct until it was rediscovered in Australia in 1994; the species dates back some 200 million years. It grows among the myrtles, laurels and jacarandas of the grounds.
