The earliest documents attesting to the existence of the Public Garden date back to 1930 and concern work carried out to widen the road and form a square on the present site. A study of the documentation shows that in 1942 the Garden was ceded as a “war garden” to meet the needs of a population brought to its knees by the war. A long period of neglect followed in the 1990s, which ended around 2000 with the beginning of rehabilitation work that led to the current creation of the garden.
A small green lung in the city, it now hosts lively recreational and social activities.
