Garden of the Bishops Palace in Kielce

The garden features symmetrical paths, seasonal flower arrangements, and terraced sections arranged around a central axis leading to the palace entrance.

The garden originated in 1700 as part of the Bishops of Kraków summer residence, incorporating both Polish and Italian landscaping traditions of that period.

The garden design reflects the ecclesiastical influence on Polish landscape architecture through its formal layout and connection to the Palace's religious significance.

Visitors can access the garden throughout the year, with guided tours explaining its layout, plant varieties, and connections to the adjacent Palace museum.

The terraced structure of the garden utilizes natural limestone formations of the region, creating distinct levels that merge architecture with local geology.
