Giardini Pubblici di Giuseppe Garibaldi (EX Villa della Lupa) was founded over two hundred years ago, in 1818. They cover an area of over 3 hectares. They are surrounded by four streets and each street has an entrance through the Iron Gate.

Since 1883, the place has been named after Giuseppe Garibaldi. Previously, it was colloquially called "Villa della Lupa" due to the presence of a cage with wolf specimens near the main entrance. The wolf (called Lupiae by the Romans) is the symbol of the city of Lecce.
