Skaryszewski Park, Public park in Praga-Południe district, Warsaw, Poland
Description
Skaryszewski Park is an expansive green space in the Praga-Południe district with wide paths, artificial hills, waterfalls, and lakes. The grounds blend rose gardens, flower beds, and open lawns into a fully landscaped setting.
History
The park was created in 1905 on meadows from the former village of Skaryszew and developed over decades with hills and water features. Between 1929 and 1945 it carried the name Paderewski Park before returning to its original designation.
Culture
The park displays sculptures throughout its grounds that visitors encounter on walks. These artworks show how artists shaped the landscape and what themes mattered to them in that era.
