Lopatinsky garden, Public garden in central Smolensk, Russia
The park spreads across the territory of the former Royal Bastion, featuring fragments of the Smolensk fortress wall with its ancient towers.
In 1874, Governor Alexander Lopatin established this garden on deteriorating fortification grounds, transforming a military structure into a public space.
The garden contains multiple monuments, including the memorial to the defenders of Smolensk from 1812 and a necropolis of revolutionary figures.
Visitors can access the garden daily from 6:00 AM to midnight, enjoying numerous attractions, cafes, and a barbecue area throughout the grounds.
The garden incorporates a water-filled moat from the original bastion structure and features the first monument in Smolensk dedicated to the city's liberation.
