This landscaped garden is one of the prettiest, best preserved,
and best kept parks in Lithuania's coastal region. In 1987
Count Felix Tiskevicius founded this park around the palace
built the same year. The park was designed by the famous
French landscape architect and botanist Eduard Fransua Andrι,
who spent three summers in Palanga with his son Renι Eduard
Andrι.
The scenic park offers a variety of views and moods. The
palace is set between a pond and the legendary hill of Birute
an ancient Lithuanian sacred place that offers a glorious
view of the sea. The natural foundation of the park, both
in earlier times and now, are relicts of ancient pine forests.
Little paths and squares with beautiful flower arrangements
are laid out skillfully among the trees.
