Can Ginebreda Wood

Curiosity · Porqueres, Pla de l'Estany, Girona

The Bosc de Can Ginebreda is a wooded area of more than seven hectares in Porqueres, covered with oaks, holm oaks, pines, junipers and strawberry trees, which the artist Xicu Cabanyes turned into a sculpture park and personal creation of his own. The pieces, on erotic themes, are scattered in the open air throughout the wood in dialogue with the surrounding landscape, and visitors can wander through it freely, with no set route or fixed paths. The Porqueres town council acquired the wood in 2009, and in 2012 the Associació d'Amics de Can Ginebreda was formed to look after it.
