Quinta Trabucco was a residence in Florida, Buenos Aires that belonged to the Trabucco Family. Built in 1892 by José Antonio Trabucco to spend the summertime with his family, the house had a tennis and bocce courts and some birds and exotic species. When Trabucco died in 1939, his wife donated the house to the Municipality of Vicente López. The donation would come into force when the last surviving member of the family died.

Part of the house's land was later expropriated when the Autopista Panamericana (Acceso Norte) was built in later 1940s. When Trabucco's only son, Alberto, died in 1990, the house was transferred to the Municipality, which reopened it as a cultural center and public park in 1996. - source: La Nación
