Odesa city garden

Garden in Odesa, Ukraine


The Odesa City garden (Ukrainian: Міський сад, romanized: Miskyi sad) is located in town centre of Odesa, Ukraine, at the Derybasivska Street. Founded by Felix de Ribas (brother of José de Ribas) in 1803, it is the oldest park in the city. Felix de Ribas was an owner of most of this part of the town[citation needed], but did not have enough resources to sustain the expenditure, and so he donated the territory of the city garden to the city on November 10, 1806.
