Leśniczówka Park in Radom, Urban park in central Radom, Poland.
Leśniczówka Park covers 7.5 hectares in north-eastern Śródmieście, bounded by 25 Czerwca, Zbrowskiego, Wodna and Kolberga streets. The Potok Północny flows through it, and the main walking avenue, named after the Tajna Organizacja Nauczycielska, runs along the stream. The planting consists mainly of deciduous trees such as poplars, Norway maples, Crimean lindens, American ashes, hornbeams, pedunculate oaks and field elms, with Norway spruces, Lawson cypresses and western thujas among the conifers.
The park was established between 1962 and 1965, replacing a former workers' settlement that belonged to the Radom Directorate of State Forests. This transformation shows how the site changed from a residential area to a public recreation space.
The main promenade, running along the Potok Północny stream, is named after the Tajna Organizacja Nauczycielska (Underground Teachers' Organization), a clandestine resistance group from World War II. The name recalls the role of teachers in secret education during the occupation. The avenue links the streets crossing the park.
The park features children's playgrounds, outdoor exercise equipment, a sledding hill for winter activities, and a skate park. Visitors should note that the stream can swell during heavy rain and may restrict access to certain areas.
The planting was carried out in 1962–1965 on the tree stock already growing on the site of the former State Forests employees' estate. The deciduous trees are mainly poplars, Norway maples, Crimean lindens, American ashes, hornbeams, pedunculate oaks and field elms, mixed with Norway spruces, Lawson's cypresses and western thujas.
