Park Szelągowski, Public park in northern Poznań, Poland

The park extends along the slope of Warta River valley, featuring numerous walking paths through dense vegetation and old growth trees.

The park's origins trace back to the Szyling merchant family, with Mikołaj Szyling establishing a gunpowder factory in this location during the 16th century.

The park grounds contained Poland's largest indoor shooting range with 37 positions and restaurant terraces that accommodated 5,000 guests until the 1950s.

Visitors can access several benches throughout the park grounds and explore the modernist Veterans House building within the green space.

An iron-rich spring in the center of the park creates distinct rust-colored soil formations around its natural water source.
