Denisovy sady

Denisovy sady is a park located on the slopes below St Peter and Paul Cathedral with paved pathways and classical buildings. The space includes a colonnade with a fountain, an obelisk, and a performance pavilion that together form a cohesive historical ensemble.

The green space was first laid out in 1771 and opened to the public in 1784. An obelisk from 1818 commemorates the peace that followed the Napoleonic wars.

The park honors a French historian who studied Czech history, reflecting the space's role as a connection between Brno and Western Europe. Walking here, you notice how the classical structures and the name itself tell a story of cultural exchange.

The park is open to visitors at all hours without admission fees. The paved pathways connect multiple entrances, making it accessible from different sides of the hill.

On clear days, visitors can see far into the southern landscape from the park's elevated position. These long views reveal how the park sits on a commanding point above the city.
