Parque de Santa Catalina, Urban park in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain

Parque de Santa Catalina is a square in the Santa Catalina-Canteras neighbourhood, in the Isleta-Puerto-Guanarteme district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, about 13 metres above sea level. It lies where the Calle León y Castillo meets the Muelle de Santa Catalina, close to the cruise terminal of the Puerto de la Luz. The Museo Elder de la Ciencia y la Tecnología and the Edificio Miller stand in the square.

The park was planned alongside the Santa Catalina quay, whose works began in 1883 as part of the new Puerto de la Luz y de Las Palmas, promoted by Fernando León y Castillo and designed by his brother Juan León y Castillo. It grew where the road later named Calle León y Castillo met the quay, on the northern sands of the city. Its name comes from Saint Catherine of Alexandria, after a fortress destroyed by the Muelle Frutero de Santa María del Pino.

The park takes its name from Saint Catherine of Alexandria, after a fortress destroyed by the construction of the Santa María del Pino fruit wharf. It is the main stage site of the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival and of the WOMAD festival, and the Elder science and technology museum and the Miller building stand inside it.

The park is easily reached by several bus routes that connect different parts of the city and serve the area well. Nearby you will find restaurants, cafes, playgrounds, and public restrooms to enhance your visit.

The park takes its name from Saint Catherine of Alexandria, after a fortress of that name destroyed when the Santa María del Pino fruit wharf was built on the site now occupied by the Las Palmas naval base. Its layout grew from the junction of the León y Castillo road and the Santa Catalina wharf.
