Park Jezerka, Urban park in Nusle, Czech Republic
Park Jezerka is a recreational area set in a valley in Nusle with walking trails, children's play areas, and a pond fed by a natural spring. The grounds also feature a pétanque court and host a theater at its edge.
The site became a park after 1946 on the remains of the Šustrovka estate, which once contained houses, farm buildings, and vineyards. This transformation marked the repurposing of the land for public use in the post-war period.
The Na Jezerce theater operates within the park and hosts regular performances for the local audience. It serves as a gathering point and stage for the surrounding community's cultural life.
The park is easy to explore on foot with wide paths suitable for different mobility needs. The play areas in the northern section and the pétanque court are clearly visible and easy to access.
A spring called Libušina lázeň feeds the park's pond and connects it to ancient Prague legends about Princess Libuše. This mythological link gives the water and the park a deeper meaning in local tradition.
