Oliwa park them. Adam Mickiewicz - Historical Park in Gdansk, which is the last well-preserved to this day the park. Today is an oasis of beauty and tranquility in the city center.

The initiative to create the park belonged to Jack Abbot Rybinsk. Park was formed on the model of French Baroque gardens gardener Hentshaloy.

The French section of the park has two mutually perpendicular axes: north-south and east-west. In the southern part of the park was created by the picturesque pond, which is currently used for fish farming. From east to west stretches a beautiful 112-meter lime avenue, where the trees are planted in two rows. It creates the illusion that the sea starts immediately beyond the garden. Cistercian monks called alley "Way to Eternity."

After secularization is the park of the monastery in 1831, the park became the property of Prussia, and was appointed inspector Gustav Shondorf Under, under whose direction the park was opened to the public. Subsequent changes in the park were carried out in 1899-1929, respectively. Near the old conservatory were planted alpine plants and a conservatory itself was rebuilt in the greenhouse.

At the end of the Second World War, the park was heavily damaged, but thanks to the numerous drawings and photographs, he was returned to the original form. In 1955, the park was a bust of Adam Mickiewicz on the centenary of his death, and the park was renamed in his honor. In 1956 it was founded a botanical garden.

In 1971, the park was included in the register of heritage Gdansk.
