Calle Jardines

Calle Jardines

This was one of the first streets of La Carolina, laid out by Pablo de Olavide in 1767. It originally linked Plaza del Ayuntamiento with the church, and its design is attributed to the military engineer, Desnaux. The first houses in colonial style were semi-detached with front gardens (a radical idea at the time), which gave the street its name. The houses were initially occupied by civil servants and later by mining company managers.
