Huerta de San Vicente

About

The Huerta de San Vicente, set within Granada’s peaceful Parque Federico García Lorca, was the summer residence of the poet and playwright during some of his most creative years. This early twentieth‑century house preserves the intimate atmosphere of Lorca’s family life, with original furniture, personal objects, and the piano around which gatherings once unfolded. Walking through its bright rooms and shaded garden offers a sense of the creative refuge where Lorca wrote key works and found inspiration in the quiet rhythms of the Vega. The surrounding orchard and landscaped grounds enhance the feeling of retreat, contrasting with the energy of central Granada just beyond. Today the house functions as a museum and cultural space, hosting exhibitions and events that keep Lorca’s legacy alive. It remains a moving destination for visitors seeking a deeper connection to Granada’s literary heritage and the emotional landscape that shaped one of Spain’s most influential voices.
