Enjoy a family day at Marimurtra Botanical Garden

The botanical garden of the Costa Brava is a privileged place to enjoy the richness of its botanical, architectural, landscape and human heritage. A paradise of the plant world that, thanks to its geographical context, maintains a close relationship with the Mediterranean Sea.

With more than 4,000 species from five different continents, Marimurtra welcomes families, schools and visitors from all over the world with the aim of making known the botany, science and wonderful landscapes of the Costa Brava, as well as the history of Carl Faust, the founder of Marimurtra. The diversity of species and spaces in Marimurtra allow the visitor to travel around the world thanks to the musical bamboo forest of the East, the arid expanses of America, corners of Australia or the jungle pergola, among others.

The Temple of Linné is one of the most unique architectural monuments in the Garden. Undoubtedly, one of the most iconic corners of the Costa Brava, with romantic architecture and an exclusive location in the first cove of the Costa Brava, Sa Forcanera.

Marimurtra was created by Carl Faust (1874-1952), a man passionate about the natural sciences who dedicated his effort and heritage to the realization of his dream. The Garden team works to keep Carl Faust’s work alive. Every visitor to Marimurtra is collaborating with their entry in the conservation of this space.

The Marimurtra Botanical Garden was declared a Cultural Asset of National Interest by the Generalitat de Catalunya and in 2009 it received the Cross of Sant Jordi.
