Location

The Jardim do Cais das Laranjeiras is located in the village of Barril, integrated within the area of Águeda and Borralha, in the municipality of Águeda. Its privileged position, by the banks of the Águeda River, offers a wide perspective of the watercourse and the surrounding landscape. This location grants it a serene environment and a direct connection with the riverside nature, harmoniously set within an urban context.

A Green and Serene Refuge

This garden is an inviting green space, designed to provide moments of tranquility. With a generous and profusely tree-lined area, it invites visitors to enjoy a natural environment in the heart of the village. It is an ideal place for a relaxed stroll or a restful break, allowing for a disconnection from the daily hustle and bustle.

The Balcony of the Parishes

One of the most distinctive elements of the Jardim do Cais das Laranjeiras is its balcony, adorned with a notable collection of tile panels. These visual and colorful works of art represent the eleven parishes that currently make up the municipality of Águeda.

The tiles not only aesthetically enrich the space but also function as a tribute to the identity and territorial diversity of the municipality, offering visitors an interesting way to engage with the cultural and geographical richness of the region through traditional Portuguese art.
