Toompark, Protected park in Old Town, Estonia
Toompark spreads across former fortification grounds around Snelli pond, featuring varied terrain with different tree species throughout its landscape garden design.
The park grounds transformed from defensive earthworks and hay fields in the 1920s, incorporating Snelli pond, which remains from the 1760s city moat.
The Patkuli staircase within the park connects the upper section of Toompea with the lower city, forming a central pathway through green spaces.
The park entrance at Nunne Street 17 remains open throughout all seasons, offering direct access to both the pond area and walking paths.
Swedish gardener Johan Snell maintained his residence near the pond during the 19th century, leading to the water feature's current name.
