The cactus garden




"Mossèn Costa i Llobera's" Garden, located in the district of Sants-Montjuïc (Miramar street close to Plaça de l’Armada) is probably the most unique place to see in Montjuïc. It's one of the best themed gardens of the city. The garden covers an area of 6.5 hectares and holds the most important collection cactus of the city, one of the leading of Catalunya and probably one of the largest in the world. This park exists since 1970.

It includes both the set of species and the variety of geographical origins of the plants, as well as the particular conditions in which they live given their orientation in the mountain of Montjuïc and within the micro-climate of the city. Conditions similar to their native habitat, since the vast majority of specimens are from countries in tropical, subtropical and desert areas.

Located at Carretera de Miramar, number 38 - 08038 Barcelona
