  From the history of the park
  
  IM Kozhedub Culture and Recreation Park is located on the grounds that included one of the first city gardens of Sumy - Leshchynsky Park, which was destroyed in 1905.
  
  Sumy city of culture and entertainment was founded in 1933 by the Soviet Union.
  
  In both the Soviet era and today, the Kozidop Culture and Recreation Park has been a permanent holiday destination such as Massiliana, Victory Day, City Day, Independence Day and more. These days, the park is full of visitors, and there are many popular events and festivals. But even on weekdays, there are few people in the park seeking to escape the bustle of the city.
  Monument of Cosdop
  
  Even before 1991, tourist attractions were installed in the Park-Ferris wheel and others. They are currently in operation (late 2000s). The park itself has been renovated several times over the years of Ukraine's independence, and is now an organized and organized urban cultural institution.
  
  Thus, in 2001, the construction of the city's central stadium "Jubilee" was completed, and at the same time, a commemorative plaque was created at the central entrance in honor of Ivan Kozidub on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
  
  Separate activities were organized to organize the Kozidub Culture and Recreation Park to celebrate the 350th anniversary of Sumy, especially in 2004 a monument to Ivan Kozidub at the central entrance. In April 2009, the park was renovated with the help of a clean city charity fund.
  
  Since 2009, the park has been decorated with beautiful flowering wood carvings - portraits of literary figures - "The Three Heroes", a fun quartet of fairy tale, the great president of the Black Sea, and the city festival "Magic Flower - City of Sumy", the opening day of the wooden statue.
