Prague 1 is set to revitalize Kampa Park next year, focusing on subtle adjustments to preserve its character.
Kampa Park’s development has been a long-standing topic. Before 2010, the municipal district planned a major CZK 100 million revitalization, including new ornamental and herb beds and an additional bridge.
However, these plans were abandoned due to public concerns over losing lawn areas where people like to relax.
The current town hall management is committed to involving the public in the design discussions.
“We agreed not to push for any big changes. We will take cautious steps,” commented Mayor Radoměřská. “We want Kampa to continue to be a wonderful place to live, welcoming day and night. Our goal is to maintain or improve what is good and remove what isn’t, working together with everyone who cares about Kampa.”
The discussion covered all the topics residents and visitors find important for the park’s renewal: greenery, paths, water and play elements, dogs, safety, and cultural events. The most debated topic was the bike path through the park and the coexistence of pedestrians and cyclists.
“We want the project to respect the conclusions of the participation. Primarily, we aim to repair the paths, the railings around ÄŒertovka, and plant bushes and trees. We will also add drinking fountains,” she added.
The reconstruction could start as early as 2025. The plan also includes revitalizing Nostic’s garden, where the paths are in poor condition. The total cost will depend on the final design and extent of the improvements.
