Kościuszko Park, Municipal park in Katowice, Poland
The green space extends across 72 hectares, featuring rose alleys, flower arrangements, pergolas, and classical garden designs influenced by English landscaping traditions.
The park originated in 1888 as a 6-hectare suburban forest area, later expanding with the creation of Süd Park between 1894 and 1895.
A wooden church from 1510, the Church of St. Michael Archangel, was relocated to the park, along with a permanent gallery displaying outdoor sculptures by regional artists.
The park includes winter facilities with a toboggan track and ski route, while illuminated paths with street lamps allow for evening visits.
The parachute tower within the park served as a defense point for scouts against Wehrmacht forces in September 1939 during the invasion of Poland.
