No major changes are planned for Kampa Park. During a public meeting held on Thursday, October 3, local officials reassured attendees about the upcoming revitalization of this iconic park.
The event, attended by several dozen people—mainly residents of Malá Strana—featured Prague 1 Mayor Terezie Radoměřská (TOP 09) and architect Magdalena Kurfürstová, who provided insights into the project.
“I have good news for everyone: Kampa Park will not undergo any radical changes. There is no need to worry about sudden transformations,” assured Mayor Radoměřská.
The meeting marked the culmination of a months-long participation process, during which nearly 600 people shared their thoughts through interviews and surveys.
“The aim is to enhance Kampa Park in a way that benefits the residents of Prague 1, particularly the people of Malá Strana,” emphasized Radoměřská.
The mayor highlighted that while the participation process had its challenges, it was driven by the community’s genuine affection for the park.
Deputy Mayor Kateřina Klasnová noted that the majority of locals want Kampa Park to stay true to its current character. “It’s clear that most people love the park as it is. So, we’ll focus on enhancements rather than major changes,” said Klasnová.
Planned Upgrades
Based on feedback from the public, the revitalization will include new drinking fountains, additional seating, ornamental shrubs, and flower beds.
There will also be a pétanque court and repairs to the deteriorating railings along the Čertovka River and pathways throughout the park.
“We’re finalizing the proposal now and will soon discuss the budget,” Klasnová explained when asked about the next steps following the public consultation. If everything proceeds as expected, the park’s revitalization could begin in the summer or fall of 2025.
