Gibraltar Botanic Gardens in Gibraltar, Gibraltar
About place Edit
The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens or Alameda Gardens are a botanical garden in Gibraltar, spanning around 6 hectares (15 acres).
The gardens were founded in 1816 by Governor of Gibraltar General George Don in order to provide a recreational area for the Garrison at the time. Serving that purpose for many years, the gardens fell into disrepair in the 1970s until the Gibraltar Botanic Gardens project, funded by a firm of environmental consultants and managers, Wildlife (Gibraltar) Limited, came about in 1991.
