Park Leśnicki, Historical park in Leśnica district, Wrocław, Poland.
Park Leśnicki is a 21-hectare green space in the Leśnica district featuring several ponds, established walking paths, and a hornbeam maze alongside the Bystrzyca River. The river forms the park's eastern boundary and provides natural waterside areas to explore.
The site was designed in the 19th century by landscape architect J.P. Lenne and underwent major restoration after suffering damage during World War II. The reconstruction shaped the park's structure and function in the following decades.
The castle in the park's southern section now houses the Culture Center 'Zamek', which regularly hosts exhibitions and community events. This space serves as an important gathering point for cultural activities in the neighborhood.
The park features children's play areas, maintained walking paths, and a footbridge connecting to the nearby Stabłowice settlement. Public transportation access makes it easy to reach, particularly if coming from other parts of the city.
The park holds several natural monuments including rare old plane trees and ancient pedunculate oaks standing near an early water tower. These botanical treasures often go unnoticed by visitors, though they offer interesting glimpses into the area's past.
