Fontana proved to be excellent, because the effect of the palace reconstruction delighted many. It was then that an elegant baroque palace was built. In the 20th century, the palace burnt down, but the city started to rebuild it and today the palace is once again enchanting.

It included both green areas, as well as the reconstruction of alleys and the replacement of the entire infrastructure. The assumption was to extract the historical context of this area. The island on the pond was also removed, which was necessary to emphasize the nature of the water reservoir and its functions.
Before the revitalization, there were 36 species of trees and 6 species of shrubs in the park. Currently, 6 species of trees and 19 varieties of shrubs have been planted. In total, 92 new plant species have been introduced to the city garden, incl. perennials, ferns and ornamental grasses.
