Jardins del Príncep de Girona

Jardins del Príncep de Girona, Urban park in El Baix Guinardó, Barcelona, Spain.

Jardins del Baix Guinardó occupies the former central courtyard of the Girona cavalry barracks, now municipal offices of the Horta-Guinardó district. A large square pond forms the park's centre, surrounded by a broad gravel esplanade. The slope down to Carrer de Taxdirt is handled by shaded terraces and planted beds of Pyracantha and Viburnum tinus.

The site once housed a cavalry barracks complex that ceased military operations in the early 1980s and was subsequently transformed into public green space. This conversion changed the location from a restricted military installation into an accessible recreational area for the neighborhood.

The park's name changed from Jardins del Príncep de Girona to Jardins del Baix Guinardó on 30 September 2018, after a participatory process in 2014 in which neighbours proposed alternatives such as Parc del Llac and Jardins de la Princesa Leonor. The renaming was marked with a popular festival presided over by deputy mayor Gerardo Pisarello.

The park provides play areas for children, table tennis tables, a designated dog zone, and a bar with outdoor seating under the pines. The multiple elevation changes mean some paths are steep, so visitors should wear appropriate footwear when exploring the terraced layout.

The lake is crossed end to end by a row of small planted islands, with plane trees growing both around the water and on the islands themselves. The slope down to Carrer de Taxdirt is handled by shaded terraces and large beds of Pyracantha angustifolia and laurustinus.
