Historic Gardens of Pazo de Castrelos : info and guided tour

Presentation of the Historic Gardens of Pazo de Castrelos

The Historic Gardens of Pazo de Castrelos are located in Vigo, around the Pazo de Castrelos, within a landscaped ensemble associated with an old manor house. The site occupies a green area to the west of the city, among paths, flowerbeds and lawns, in an atmosphere that blends heritage and botany.

The garden is designed as a historic ornamental space, with carefully laid out paths, shaded areas and a wide variety of plantings. It highlights the connection between the architecture of the pazo and its natural setting, giving the place an identity that feels different from a simple urban park.

As a botanical garden, Castrelos features a diversity of plant species and vegetation atmospheres that make the walk even more enjoyable. Large trees, ornamental shrubs and flower-filled spaces create an ideal setting for observing the landscape and the changing seasons, in a site closely linked to the memory of the estate.

The whole area is one of the best-known green spaces in Vigo, at Camiño Corredoura, 41. The Historic Gardens of Pazo de Castrelos are at once a place for a stroll, a heritage garden and a point of interest for understanding the role of former rural estates in the city’s development.
