park Edmunda Teyrovského Park
The park of Edmund Teyrovský in Vsenory is a historic place founded between 1926 and 1927 during the first Czechoslovak Republic. Architect Alois Dlabač designed it as a 'voluptuar' - a romantic garden for relaxation and landscaping. The park offers sculptures of important Czech characters, pavilions, staircases and decorative elements. Despite its decline as a result of neglect and vandalism over the decades, renewal efforts are ongoing.
The origin of Edmund Teyrovski Park returned to the period when Czechoslovakia experienced significant cultural development after World War I. At the beginning of the 20th century Vsenory became popular for building summer villas and enjoying nature. The park was built under engineer Edmund Teyrovský and architect Alois Dlabač from 1926 to 1927. It spreads approximately four hectares, with elements typical of a romantic garden which is designed to improve relaxation and aesthetics of the landscape.
Architectural park integrates nature with artistic elements. The Alois Dlabač construction included landscaping, small pavilions, staircases and decorative elements harmonised with the natural environment. Important architectural elements include sculptures representing significant Czech personalities such as Jan Žižka, Master Jan Hus and Jan Amos Komenský (although this statue was later lost). In addition, there are balustrations, stone inscriptions of spiritual and national importance, pavilions, altars and a small pond.
Owning changed dramatically in the 1950s when the Communist government seized it. This led to paralysis and sales, which led to deterioration. Once cohesive design fell apart because sculptures and buildings deteriorated or were destroyed due to neglect and inappropriate time manipulation.
Throughout his history, Park Edmund Teyrovsky witnessed several key events and curiosities. Originally a part of Lower Mokropsie before it became part of Všenory, the park was connected by a road between two divided municipalities under a newly built road (now Karl Mayer street). Edmund Teyrovský also built his own villa in the park, designed in the same style as the garden. In 2017, efforts to preserve the heritage of the park saw the relocation of the statue of St. Wenceslas stand before the church of St. Wenceslas in Vsenory.
The recovery efforts are currently being conducted by the "One Wine 'association established in 2018. While many elements remain hairy and some statues are buried under vegetation, volunteers are actively working to restore them. The historical importance of the park and its combination of natural beauty with cultural art makes it a useful visit for interested people in Czech history and landscape architecture.
Edmund Teyrovski Park stands as a testament to the first 20th century of cultural aspirations and architectural innovations. Its continued renewal efforts draw attention to the continued value of preserving these historical sites. Visitors are invited to explore this unique park where they can witness both its past grandeur and its promising future recovery.

Welcome to Edmund Teyrovsky's magic park in Vsenory, a hidden jewel nestled in the Středočeský kraj region. As you stand here, imagine returning to the era of romantic gardens and architectural elegance. This park is not just a green space, it's a historical story intertwined by time.
The story begins in the early 20th century, during the first Czechoslovak Republic. In 1926, with a vision to create 'Voluptuar' - a garden designed for relaxation and beauty - the park was founded. The architect Alois Dlabač was behind his design, whose work culminated in 1927 under the guidance of engineer Edmund Teyrovsky. This period meant an ambitious effort to mix nature with art, create a quiet environment that invites visitors to relax in the middle of plastics and landscape visions.
As you walk through the park today, notice how the remains of its original design continue to whisper stories of its past grandeur. The roads lead your eyes where the pavilion once stood and called for contemplation under their roofs. The staircase gently emerges into the landscape, which is proof of Dylan's vision of integration of architecture with nature smoothly.
This park was more than just an escape; It was a canvas that showed remarkable Czech figures through statues that flowed his lands. Although many of these works of art may no longer be present, the space they occupied calls on your imagination to fill their stories and meaning.
The history of Edmund Teyrovsky Park is marked by both creation and challenge. In 1950, after a period of political upheaval, the park was seized by the Communist government. This has led to its division and gradual decline, which is a significant reminder of how social-political forces can transform the landscape.
Yet, in recent years, there has been hope of recovery. The relocation of the statue of St. Wenceslas before the church of St. Wenceslas in 2017 meant the beginning of renewed interest. Until 2018, the association "One Wine" was established with the mission to breathe new life into this historic place.
The fascinating aspect of the park's history is its geographical and administrative path. Originally part of the Lower Mokropsie later became associated with Vsenory. The road that once joined these two villages and bridged them on a newly built road - a physical and symbolic connection between communities.
As we close this soundwalk through the park of Edmund Teyrovsky, I invite you to further explore, to walk through the paths which Alois Dlabač represented, and to think about layers of history beneath your feet. This park is proof of the resilience, beauty and enduring force of nature intertwined with human creativity. Thank you for joining me on this journey through time and space.
