Havlíčkovy sady, Public park in Vinohrady, Czech Republic

Havlíčkovy sady is an 11-hectare park on a slope above the Botič stream in Vinohrady. At its top stands the two-storey neo-Renaissance Gröbe Villa, built in 1879–1881 to designs by Antonín Barvitius, with a portico on the north side and a terrace descending by a double staircase to a 1.7-hectare vineyard. The grounds also hold the Viniční Altánek pavilion, the Grotta, and the Horní and Dolní Landhauska farmsteads.

Vineyards occupied the slopes from the 13th century, and Emperor Charles IV promoted viticulture here in the 14th century. From 1870 the industrialist Moritz Gröbe bought the Horní and Dolní Landhauska farmsteads and their plots, and in 1871 began building a summer residence and park, completed in 1888. His heirs sold the estate to the Vinohrady municipality in 1905, which opened it to the public on 16 May 1906 as Havlíčkovy sady.

The park was named in 1906 to honor Karel Havlíček Borovský, an important Czech writer and journalist from the 19th century. This naming connects visitors to the literary and political heritage that shaped Czech identity.

The park has multiple entrances along Rybalkova Street and U Havlíčkových sadů Street, with main pathways connecting different elevation levels. Visitors should expect varying terrain and wear comfortable shoes for exploring the terraced areas.

The park's paths and lawns sit on ground raised with 60,000 cartloads of soil and rock; some spots were cut down nine metres, while the old quarry was filled with spoil from the Vinohrady railway tunnel and topsoil from the Main Station works. The villa's south terrace leads down to the vineyard by a double staircase.
