Park im. Stefana Żeromskiego w Kołobrzegu, Heritage park in Kołobrzeg, Poland
The Stefan Żeromski Park is a green area along the Baltic Sea coast offering walking paths and vegetation for protection from sea storms. The grounds also include a concert shell and exercise facilities for visitors.
The park emerged around 1850 from sand dunes after residents had supported coastal development for bathing since the early 1800s. This transformation made the coastal area accessible for visitors.
The park is named after a renowned Polish writer and reflects the city's connection to the sea. Visitors can see here a monument that symbolizes Poland's historical bond with the Baltic coast.
The park has tennis courts and fitness stations along the paths that invite exercise. Visitors should know that the best days to explore are sunny and dry, especially in the warmer months.
A special tree in the park is an old bald cypress protected as a natural monument since 1992. The tree has a trunk circumference that shows how ancient and strong it is.
