Details
Located in the heart of Downtown Tucson, El Presidio Park is a historic civic plaza dating back to 1775. Flanked by City Hall and the Pima County Historic Courthouse, the park features memorials, rose gardens, and shaded seating. At its center is the striking El Presidio Fountain, a sculptural tribute to Tucson’s history and water preservation. While no longer able to host large-scale events, the park remains a meaningful spot for quiet reflection, small gatherings, and community connection.
Open daily from sunrise to sunset. Public WiFi and underground parking available. Public restrooms available in the Pima County Historic Courthouse.
