Cardenio Theatre
The Cine-Theatro Cardenio was built in 1950 not only as a cinema and for various theatrical events, but also as a cultural centre.
Some time ago, it ceased being used as a cinema on becoming unprofitable and is used these days as a theatre or as the venue for the main acts of the various city festivities, such as the carnival competitions of the musical groups (comparsas, chirigotas and cuartetos), the election of the Carnival Queen, concerts, plays, etc.
In February 2001, it was restored and the stage, ceiling, stalls, audio and lights etc., refurbished and improved. The name no longer reflects its past as a cinema. Nevertheless, it is now, happily, enjoying a increasing resurgence of local events.

Built by Sr. Manuel Rivero in 1745, this building reflects the fashionable, bourgeois style of Cádiz houses of the XVIII Century. It was perfectly suited to Sr. Manuel's requirements as his home, administrative centre and for the management of his commercial operations.

In the 1970's, Ayamonte was provided with this green zone, which has recently been extended to include a canal-side promenade, almost in the middle of the city, by the local artist, Prudencio Navarro.
The park also has zones containing recreational facilities, such as biking and skating (1 Half-Pipe, 1 Fun Box) as well as for different sports and a children's play centre, providing recreational and educational activities.
