In 1909, the building of the Art Nouveau-style Skating and Tennis Pavilion was built here according to the project of Július Sandy, a native of Prešov, for the Košice Skating and Tennis Association (Kassai korcsolyázó és tenisz egyesület).
In the interwar period, the park housed the Nádražná restaurant, the center of the Slovak Council for Foreign Tourism with a tourist office and accommodation.
In 1937, the Municipal Swimming Pool was established here, and in 1962, an indoor swimming pool was built here according to the plans of the architect Ladislav Greč.
In the 90s of the 20th century, a pond with an artificial stream was established here and a music pavilion was restored, which was built in 1885 according to the plan of the city builder Július Poschl.
The iron construction was made by the artistic blacksmith Master Kozzig.
The last reconstruction and revitalization within the European Capital of Culture project took place in 2013.
During this reconstruction of the park, new lamps, a workout playground, a cable car, cameras, playgrounds, information kiosks were added, and a historic lake by the swimming pool, a gazebo, fountains, bridges and other buildings were renovated.
