The Project

Space, nature and life

Orihuela and the Department of the Environment have carried out an ambitious project of REHABILITATION, VALUE AND CONSERVATION OF THE ORIHUELA PALM GROVE.

This project pursues the transformation of the Palmeral de San Antón into a place that respects its character as a historical site and that in turn highlights the fact that it is a space that contains significant elements of the cultural heritage integrated into a relevant physical environment, for its landscape and ecological values.
