Jardín de El Bosque, Renaissance garden in Béjar, Spain.

The garden contains a large pond, a monumental fountain, a small square, balustrades, benches, and tiered seating arranged in a harmonious design.

The El Bosque estate was built as a recreational villa for the Dukes of Béjar and Plasencia, with the first mention of its pond dating to 1567.

The garden earned the status of Artistic Garden, equivalent to Cultural Interest Site, on January 11, 1946, reflecting its architectural significance.

Since 1999, the complex has been jointly owned by the Béjar City Council and the Regional Government of Castilla y León, ensuring its preservation.

The park includes a botanical garden with exceptional trees, including a giant sequoia planted in the 19th century amid its Italian Renaissance design.
