The Horta Labyrinth Park is a historic garden, the oldest preserved in the city. It is located on the old estate of the Desvalls family, on a slope of the Collserola mountain range. Begun in 1794 and completed in its first phase in 1808, it was the work of the Italian architect Domenico Bagutti.
In the same enclosure, we will find a neoclassical garden from the eighteenth century and a romantic garden from the nineteenth century. It opened to the public in 1971. This space has numerous works of art, mainly sculptures, as well as various ponds, waterfalls, fountains and a canal that runs through the upper enclosure. In gardening, the labyrinth, made with trimmed cypresses, stands out.
Throughout its history, the site has been visited by several monarchs such as Charles IV, Ferdinand VII and Alfonso XIII and has been the scene of theatrical performances and various cultural events.
It is currently a garden-museum that has a municipal institute for gardening training.
Now you can visit it with a botany expert who will enlighten you on the subject.
