About

Serralves Park, from the first half of the 20th century, was the first national private garden built based on a landscape architecture project.

Completed in 1940, the garden adapts itself to the neoclassical layout of the art of French gardens, slightly modernised, moving away from the traditional concept of gardens in effect in Porto.

Whether for its historical and artistic characteristics, or for its size (18 hectares), landscape diversity and state of conservation, Serralves Park is a unique place in the national and international scene.

It includes very diverse landscapes, from the sloping terraces to the thick forests, from the labyrinthine geometry of some gardens to the agricultural land, from the rose garden to the romantic lake.

Comprised by remains of a 19th-century garden, Quinta do Mata-Sete, Serralves Villa, Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art and Treetop Walk, whose gardens were designed to blend harmoniously with the surrounding landscape and the built structure. Building designated a monument of public interest.
