Jardins de Ca n'Altimira

The gardens spread across multiple levels with marble sculptures, water features, and numerous walking paths throughout the landscaped grounds.

In 1866, landowner Josep Altimira acquired a vast estate of 193,500 square feet, later constructing a tower crowned with a golden dome.

The architecture incorporates various design elements, including an Arabic-style courtyard and neo-Gothic chapel windows reflecting Barcelona's mixed influences.

The municipal authorities opened this public space in 1991 following extensive renovations to preserve its botanical and architectural elements.

The underground network of caves beneath the garden could be deliberately flooded, creating an unusual subterranean water feature.
