Taconera Park
Parque de la Taconera
Pamplona's oldest park, with deer and peacocks in the former moat, beside the city walls and the Church of San Lorenzo.
Built in the 19th century in the Romantic style, this is the city's oldest garden. It preserves the Saint Nicholas Gate from the old city walls. Deer, goats, peacocks and ducks were once kept in the former moat, which makes it a favourite with families with children. The park contains the famous 'María Blanca' sculpture and an old-fashioned café kiosk, the Vienés. Entry is free. It is about an 8-minute walk from the Castle Square, and can be combined with the Citadel park to form a green walking route.
