Stryisky Park is one of the oldest and most beautiful parks in Lviv, a monument of landscape art of national importance.

Stryisky Park was designed by the famous architect Arnold Rering in 1876-1877 on the territory of the former Stryisky cemetery. In 1884, the Regional Exhibition was held in the park, numerous exhibition pavilions were built, and an electric tram line was directed to the park. From 1922 until the start of World War II, the Eastern Trades exhibition-fair worked in the park, to which narrow-gauge tracks were brought to deliver goods and passengers from Persenkovka station. In the 1930s, a radio transmission tower was built here.
In 1939-1941, the upper part of the park (the territory of the former Eastern Markets) was occupied by the military. In the post-war years, until 1956, there were military trains in the premises of the former pavilions of the Eastern Trades, a railway line from the Persenkovka station, laid in 1894, reached here. In 1951, the narrow-gauge tracks used to serve the Eastern Trades were partially dismantled, and partially used to found the Lviv Children's Railway.
During the Soviet period, the territory of the park was enlarged due to wastelands and unused areas, a cast-iron fence was installed, and new species of trees and shrubs were planted. In 1952, the main entrance to the park was decorated with a light arch of the Corinthian order designed by the Soviet architect G. Shvetsky-Vinetsky. By the 700th anniversary of Lvov, in 1956, the military liquidated their economy. After that, for some time the upper terrace of the park was used for regional industrial and agricultural exhibitions, over time, the perestroika pavilions were occupied by various organizations. Gyms of the Lviv Polytechnic were equipped in the premises of the Racławice Panorama. The former Palace of Arts housed the Department of Physical Education of the Lviv Polytechnic and a swimming pool. One of the former pavilions houses the Lviv Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Under the USSR, the Lebed restaurant was quite popular, which got its name from the fountains of the early 1950s with a sculptural image of swans. On the site of one of the old Polish pavilions in 1960, the first large-format cinema "Lviv" in Lviv was built. In a decorative pseudo-Gothic tower of the Austrian period, the Vezha bar was installed in 1976, which was one of the most popular in the city. A parachute tower, dismantled in the 1980s, worked in Stryisky Park. At the same time, the railway track that led from Persenkovka was dismantled. In 2004, in the upper part of the park, not far from the Lviv cinema, a monument to Ukrainian football was erected, since in the pre-war period the stadium of the Ukrainian sports society Sokol-Otets was located nearby.
