Jardín Botánico Marimurtra

The garden extends across 15 hectares of Mediterranean coastline, containing more than 4,000 plant species arranged in specialized sections at 45 meters elevation.

German botanist Karl Faust established this garden in the early 20th century, dedicating his life to collecting and preserving Mediterranean and international plant specimens.

The garden incorporates Noucentisme architectural elements throughout its grounds, reflecting the Catalan cultural movement's influence on early 20th-century design and landscaping.

Visitors can access different themed areas through established pathways, including Mediterranean, tropical, and cactus sections, with informational signs identifying plant species.

The garden maintains specialized collections of plants from similar Mediterranean climate zones worldwide, creating distinct ecological representations of these global regions.
