The park was originally a hunting lodge with Renaissance vaults, later transformed into a natural landscape park by Count Mitrovský in 1833. The Klein family further developed it, adding statues and making it publicly accessible. The orangery, once housing 2400 exotic plants and 70 pineapple trees, was reconstructed in 2009 and now serves as a cultural house.
Spanning 12.26 hectares, the park boasts a rich collection of native and exotic trees and shrubs, including impressive specimens of linden, maple, hornbeam, beech, and various conifers. Informational plaques help visitors identify the diverse flora.
