Her name comes from Cristina Brunetti and Gayoso de los Cobos, XIII Duchess of Mandas, married to Fermín de Lasala and Collado, an important businessman and politician from San Sebastian, best known for his wife's noble title.
This park was conceived by the Duke of Mandas, who, at his death, donated the same to the City Council, being some of the conditions that were not built in it, nor was the park used for any use other than this and that will keep the name of Cristina Enea. In 2007, some renovation works were completed, thanks to which accessibility was improved and a new range of trees and shrubs brought from Belgium and Germany was planted in order to enrich their biodiversity.

The port of San Sebastián is located within the municipality of San Sebastián, forming part of the Concha Bay, south of Urgull. Its modern construction began in the second half of the s. XV d. C.
Throughout the 18th century d. C. there were several projects to improve the port promoted by the Consulate of San Sebastián, which in addition to new docks came to propose the closure of the western mouth of the bay, an idea already proposed by the Villa in the seventeenth century d. C .. None of them got to run.
In the 19th century AD C. the architect Silvestre Pérez (1821) began the works for the closure of the western mouth of the bay. In the mid-19th century AD C., the port of San Sebastian doubled its capacity thanks to the construction of a new dock (1851-1858); there was the new dock equipped with floodgates - years later suppressed - that allowed the maintenance of the water level at low tide. Later the old Kaierdi was suppressed and, later, the so-called Eskalleta or stepped sector that attracts attention in the old photographs in front of the so-called Barrio de la Jarana.
Throughout the 20th century d. C. several slight modifications were made. Among them, the cut-out of Kaimingancho (1943) stands out, placing on the section that there was a concrete platform secured by piles in order to form an esplanade on which a tinglado ("aircraft carrier") was built. The last one, dating from the 1980s, consisted of a new slight cut from Kaiburu.
Currently, the port of San Sebastián has two docks: a fishing and a sports one. The sports dock has little capacity, with the sports fleet forced to anchor in the bay of La Concha during the summer. This is the dock designed by Peironcely in the mid-19th century AD. C. and the one that for more than a hundred years hosted commercial traffic (wood and cement in recent times), ceasing to function as such in the 1970s.
Managed for years by the Center of Attraction and Tourism, in the 1990s it was transferred to a Public Limited Company called Puerto Deportivo de Donostia-San Sebastián, in which the Basque Government and the City of San Sebastián participate equally.
The possibility of expanding the marina is practically nil, which is why a preliminary draft was drafted in the 1990s for the construction of a new marina between the tip of Monpás and Zurriola Beach, which did not run.
