Since opening its doors in 1935, this five-hectare mystical wonderland, complete with a Spanish-style castle, waterfall and over 7000 tropical trees and palms, has earnt its place as one of North Queensland’s premier tourist attractions.
Paronella Park was built in the 1930s by José Paronella (ca.1888 – 23 August 1948), who arrived in nearby Innisfail, Queensland, Australia in 1913, having sailed from his homeland, Catalonia, in northern Spain. Paronella worked hard for 11 years, creating his wealth by buying, improving, and selling cane farms. While travelling through the beautiful countryside he discovered a virgin forest alongside spectacular Mena Creek Falls - the perfect location for his dream.
Part I video is focused on Paronella Museum. Jose and margarita lived in a small, stone cottage within the garden, where they chose to remain during their time at Paronella Park. This little home was converted into a museum later and while José and Margarita have long since passed away, their headstones reside in the park.
If you look closely, you can also see José’s fingerprints in the concrete structures around the park – a true testament to his years of determination and hard work to create this magical place by hand.
the museum housed collections of coins, pistols, dolls, samples of North Queensland timbers and other items of interest.
