Botanical Garden of Cap Roig
The Cap Roig Botanical Garden is located in Calella de Palafrugell, in the surroundings of Cap Roig Castle. The gardens and the castle were the brainchild of the couple formed by the Russian soldier Nicholas Woevodski and the British aristocrat Dorothy Webster, who found in this corner of the Costa Brava the dream place to settle down.
In an area of approximately 20 hectares, there are more than 800 botanical species from all over the world that make up one of the most formidable gardens in the whole of the Mediterranean. This beautiful spot also has picnic areas, terraces and sculptures created by national and international artists.
Nowadays, the gardens of Cap Roig host every summer one of the most popular music festivals on the Costa Brava.
