The Salgueiro Maia Garden is located in the parish of Glória e Vera Cruz, situated in the Horta Dr. Pádua Neighborhood, a central area of the city of Olhão. Its position in the urban center makes it easily accessible for anyone exploring the locality.
Dedicated to the memory of Captain Salgueiro Maia, a prominent figure of the Revolution of April 25, 1974, this garden in Olhão is a tribute to his historical significance. Its designation aims to honor the ideals of freedom and democracy that Salgueiro Maia personified and which profoundly marked the contemporary history of Portugal.
Conceived as a place for socializing and leisure, the Salgueiro Maia Garden offers a pleasant environment for those seeking a moment of relaxation or for outdoor sports activities. Its landscaping was designed to create a space that not only beautifies the area but also serves as a living reminder of the importance of cultivating the values of freedom and democracy, just as one "waters" a garden, so that they endure through the generations.
