Cannizaro Park, Grade II* listed park in Wimbledon, England.

The 34-acre Cannizaro Park contains ornamental gardens with ponds, sculptures, and an extensive collection of rhododendrons and rare trees.

Originally part of Warren House estate, the park gained its name from Francis Platamone, Count Sant Antonio, who inherited the Sicilian dukedom of Cannizzaro in 1832.

The grounds welcomed numerous distinguished visitors, including King George III, William Pitt the Younger, and Emperor Haile Selassie, commemorated by a memorial bust.

The park opens daily with free admission, offering wheelchair-accessible paths, designated picnic areas, and convenient connections to public transportation from central London.

A specialized water garden features multiple ponds connected by streams, creating micro-ecosystems that support local wildlife and aquatic plants throughout the seasons.
