Saxon garden

Ogrod Saski, Saxon Gardens
Poland, Warsaw
The Saxon Garden is a city park in Warsaw, founded at the end of the seventeenth century, and became the first public park in Europe for visitors. This beautiful Baroque park was inspired by the park in Versailles. Since the nineteenth century, the "Saxon Garden" takes on the features characteristic of a typical English park in a romantic style with ponds and fountains. The garden contains several attractions that are popular with tourists. Among them is the "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier", which appeared here in the post-war years as a tribute to the memory of all those who fell in battle.
