Puente San Miguel gardens

The historic garden of Puente San Miguel features a manor house surrounded by the extraordinary charm of carefully tended, century-old trees. For more than 300 years, the estate has been owned by the Sanz de Sautuola family, of which Don Marcelino, discoverer of the nearby Altamira Caves, was a member. With more than seven hectares of land, it has become almost a botanical garden where we can admire magnificent specimens in an incomparable setting. Notable trees include the metasequoia, of Chinese origin, American redwoods, horse chestnuts, Lebanon cedars, Irish yew and a eucalyptus tree planted in 1867.
