Parc de Joan Miró is a public park in Barcelona named after the artist Joan Miró and featuring one of his signature public sculptures, a large tiled figure commonly known as “Dona i Ocell.” The park provides a planted urban green space for local residents and visitors close to the Montjuïc and Plaça d’Espanya areas.

The park’s primary feature is Miró’s sculpture set within lawns and paved pathways, surrounded by mature trees and open areas used for recreation. It functions as a place for relaxation, short walks and informal gatherings rather than a formal museum space.

The sculpture and park were installed in the late 20th century as part of municipal efforts to increase public art and green space in the city. The park is sited within Barcelona’s city fabric and is accessible from nearby metro and bus stops.

The park sits on the city side of Montjuïc near Plaça d’Espanya and major avenues, making it a convenient stop for people visiting the broader Montjuïc attractions or using the nearby public transport links.

• Major artwork: The park contains Joan Miró’s large public sculpture “Dona i Ocell” (Woman and Bird), a tall, colourfully tiled landmark installed as part of the park’s design.
• Location and use: Located near Plaça d’Espanya and the Montjuïc area, the park functions as an urban green space with lawns, walking paths and children’s play areas.

From Plaça d’Espanya take the metro (L1 or L3) to Espanya station and walk uphill toward Montjuïc, or use Paral·lel station (L2) and walk across Avinguda de la Reina Maria Cristina. The park is a short walk from these transport hubs.

• Stand beneath Joan Miró's 'Dona i Ocell' (Woman and Bird) sculpture to appreciate its scale and the artist's ceramics work.
• Access the park from Paral·lel metro (L2) or Espanya (L1, L3) depending on which side of the park one is coming from.
• Look for small bronze sculptures and mosaics tucked into the park's lawns-Miró's work is integrated into the landscape rather than displayed in a single monument.
