  It is the oldest and most popular park in Hradec Kralove

  The beginnings of the park date back to the second half of the nineteenth century, when the city was still closed with fortifications. At their park at the confluence of the Elbe and Orlice rivers, in 1868, after the arrival of the twelfth regiment of Archduke Wilhelm, the officers' garden was erected at the site of canceled orchards, vegetable gardens, and stocks and raised inventory to meet the crew's needs. To this park the name public park is preferred, because it went mainly to the castle chief and other senior officers with their families. To this day, we can find the remains of the fortifications, especially the passage walled through a mud wall (potern), which enters the rose garden. The first gardener was a gardener from Pouchov Jan Vognar, who was originally a guard of the gendarmerie, after which the mayor of the Readers and Traders Union František Valeš, who died in 1908. Sometimes local teachers and their pupils went here on botanical trips, often accompanied them.
