Alameda dos Remedios

Curiosity · Mondoñedo, Mariña Central, Lugo

Image of Mondoñedo, not of the place itself.

On 4 February 1569 the magistrate Luis de Luaces ordered trees to be planted here on pain of a fine and afterwards gave the townspeople an open-air meal: it is held to be the first tree festival in Spain and perhaps in Europe.
