"Taconera" Gardens

The Taconera Gardens are the oldest and most beautiful and emblematic park in Pamplona. Its 90,000 square meters are located near the old city walls very close to the Old Quarter of the city, and the park has a marked romantic and Versaillesque character.

It combines trees and flowers with a wide range of sculptures to offer the visitor a series of different itineraries. If anything characterises this delightful place it is the mini-zoo in the moat of the walls that contains deer, ducks, pheasants, swans, peacocks... in a state of semi-freedom.


The Taconera also contains gates in the style of triumphal arches, a monument to the famous Navarrese tenor Julián Gayarre, sculptures such as the well-loved "Mariblanca", or the pointed arches of the monument to King Theobald II. The Viennese Café is a popular place for artists and students or simply to meet friends.
