The park houses a unique monument dedicated to Frédéric Chopin, who visited the town for health reasons in 1826.
The park's layout includes a historic 'Steel Pavilion' (Hala Spacerowa) which connects to the main concert hall.
The mineral springs in the park are carbonated, a rare geological feature for this region.
The park is home to a specific species of exotic flora adapted to the microclimate of the Sudetes mountains.
Park Zdrojowy is the central spa park of Duszniki-Zdrój, centered around a historic pump room and concert hall. The park features an extensive collection of rare botanical specimens and exotic trees. It serves as the primary venue for the International Chopin Piano Festival, which has been held here annually since 1946. A notable feature is the 19th-century Pijalnia Wód (Water Pump Room) where visitors sample local mineral waters. The grounds are laid out in a late-19th-century landscape design incorporating fountains and walking paths. The park remains the geographic and cultural heart of this Lower Silesian spa town.

Bring a reusable mug or buy a traditional spa cup from local vendors to sample the mineral water at the pump room.
Walk the perimeter trails to see the older, arboretum-style sections of the park away from the main concert hall.
Check the local cultural calendar, as outdoor chamber music performances frequently occur during the summer season.
Do not attempt to drink untreated water directly from decorative fountains or natural springs that are not specifically designated as potable.
Outdoor park areas are accessible year-round, though the Pijalnia Wód and music venues operate primarily during the peak spa and festival seasons.
Maintain a quiet tone near the concert hall and spa treatment areas; respectful walking attire is encouraged.
