Parque Federico García Lorca

About

Parque Federico García Lorca is one of Granada’s most beloved green spaces, created to honour the city’s most celebrated poet while offering a peaceful retreat from urban life. Spread across expansive lawns and tree‑lined paths, the park occupies the grounds of the Huerta de San Vicente, the summer residence where Lorca wrote some of his most important works. The house, preserved as a museum, stands at the heart of the park and adds a poignant cultural dimension to the landscape. Visitors wander among rose gardens, fountains, and shaded corners that evoke the lyrical spirit of Lorca’s poetry, making the park both a recreational haven and a place of quiet reflection. Today it serves as a vibrant cultural hub, hosting concerts, readings, and community events that keep the poet’s legacy alive within the rhythm of modern Granada.
