Information

Duration: 30 min
Season: All year; in bloom in June and July
Who it's for: Everyone

The idea came from England: the "Lidice Shall Live" group of the MP Barnett Stross proposed a rose garden, which opened in June 1955 as the garden of peace and friendship. It covers 3.5 ha on the slope between the old village and the new one, with rose bushes sent from many countries planted by colour and shape. In 2015 it received the Award of Garden Excellence of the World Federation of Rose Societies. The best time is June and July.
