Verkhny Park, Lipetsk, Protected area in Lipetsk, Russia.

Verkhny Park is a dendrological nature monument on the steep right slope of the Voronezh River valley, stretching between Lenina Street and Saltykova-Shchedrina Street in Lipetsk. Its tree stand consists of century-old oaks, lindens and maples, and the grounds hold the former merchant houses that survived, among them the Apothecary's House and the Wedding Palace.

The park was established in 1911 as the city sought to develop modern public green spaces. This founding reflected the urban development priorities of Lipetsk at that time.

The park's names trace its Soviet-era life: renamed Children's Park in the late 1950s, Pioneer Park in 1970, and Verkhny Park again on 1 June 2006. A bronze-painted Lenin statue stands on a tiled platform, and a small monument shows a boy and girl kneeling with a wreath, inscribed to children who died in the Great Patriotic War.

The park lies on the steep right bank of the Voronezh River, between Lenina Street and Saltykov-Shchedrin Street, so the ground slopes and some paths are stairs. The planned wide staircase down to Nizhny Park was never built; only the alley leading toward the river was laid out. Enter from the Lenina Street side, where the former merchant houses, the Apothecary's House and the Wedding Palace, still stand.

The park is a dendrological nature monument; its tree stock consists of centuries-old oaks, lindens and maples, not elms or willows. A 1987 sculpture group, "Internationale — the Music-Band Boys" by sculptor A. E. Wagner and architect B. P. Kantsane, stands in the park.
