🌳 Sosnovaya Polyana Park

пр. Ветеранов (вход с северной стороны)

The former landscape park of the Vorontsov dacha with a cascade of ponds on the Sosnovka stream.

At the turn of the 19th century the Sosnovka stream was turned into a chain of ponds.
In the early 19th century under A. L. Naryshkin a landscape park with canals and diagonal paths was laid out in the southern part of the estate.
In the war German artillery batteries stood in the park, and the conifer forest suffered badly.
In the 1970s the park was slated for clearing for development — schoolchildren saved it by forming human chains.
In the early 21st century the park's historic layout was restored.
