In 2013, on the tourist map of Zakarpattia region appeared a new object. Within 3 years with the help of historians, fine art experts and sculptors headed by the art patron, has been recreated a park of Schönborn dynasty, which controlled part of the Zakarpattia from 1711 to 1944.

Access to the park is free, it is located within a large resort "Voevodyno", so your visit can be combined with a variety of leisure activities in the complex. The park is small but cozy and well maintained, it was definetely created with love.

Every detail in the park symbolizes something. For example the entrance gate is the border between Austria-Hungary and the modern Ukraine.
