History

Huelva's attraction for successive generations of settlers lies in its geographical position on a large river estuary, on the Atlantic coast, and its proximity to rich mineral deposits. Its origins can be traced back to prehistoric times, when the first settlers in the Bronze Age were drawn to the area by the minerals in the area that is now the site of the Río Tinto mines.

Parks in Huelva City

The biggest park, the vast El Conquero and adjacent Parque Moret, is crossed by Avenida Manuel Siurot, with dilapidated postmodernist sculpture decorating its viewpoints. The views over the Odiel estuary are superb, however. At the northern end of the avenue is the Sanctuario de Nuestra Señora de la Cinta. Parque Moret has a large woodland area, with fruit trees and allotments on its south eastern edge.
