Gardens and Parks of Split Origin and Development of Split’s Landscape Architecture

Ovaj pregled perivojne arhitekture grada Splita ukazuje na bitnu ulogu perivoja i vrtova u urbanističkom razvoju grada. U povijesnom okviru njihova nastajanja i razvoja, 19. stoljeće ostavlja u naslijeđe najznačajnije primjere perivoja i vrtova nastalih na mjestu bedema iz druge polovice 17. st. Sudbina većine njih do polovice 20. st. pokazuje degradaciju odnosa prema perivojima i vrtovima koji su zbog izgradnje nestali, ili su posve devastirani.This review of Split’s landscape architecture points to a fundamental role of parks and gardens in the town’s urban development.

Due to excessive construction and lack of appropriate care most of them were devastated or even vanished until the mid 20th century
