Aranjuez Cultural Landscape

Aranjuez Cultural Landscape

The city of Aranjuez is located in central Spain. The Aranjuez Cultural Landscape is an entity of complex interrelationships: between nature and human activity, between winding waterways and geometric landscapes, between rural and urban settings, and between forested scenery and the softly modulated architecture of its grand buildings.

For 300 years, the Spanish royal family has devoted significant effort to the Aranjuez Cultural Landscape, showcasing its marvelous transformations to the world. Here, we can not only observe concepts of humanitarianism and political centralization, but also appreciate the distinctive features of 18th-century French-style Baroque gardens, as well as the urban lifestyle that evolved during the Age of Enlightenment alongside plant cultivation and livestock breeding.
