KAMENICA PARK
Summary
By its size,
age, natural and cultural values the Kamenica Park is the
most important park of Novi Sad as well as one of the most
representative parks in Serbia. By many of its
characteristics its also specific on the European level.
Website the
GREEN BOOK OF KAMENICA PARK has presented a database on this
unique natural and cultural entity. It has included (in the
main menu) information on Park’s geography, history and
ecology along with the introducing and concluding sections.
The history has been devided into four sections: before the
park, count’s park, people’s park and today’s park. The
ecology section has presented all environmental factors of
the Park such as: terrain configuration, air and climate,
soil, water, plants, animals, mushrooms and influnces by
humans. Most of the data presented in this site are now
publicly shown for the first time ever.
In compiling
this site, archives materials and the available publications
on the Park have been used, whereas the major part of
information resulted in targeted terrain researching. The
database was made by the CASPAR Center’s members assisted by
their external collaborators. The process was initiated in
summer 2003, it was intensified during 2007 through 2008 and
it will be continued for a few more years. The precious
assistance in collecting these data was extended by the
children of the SOS Village and the citizens of Sremska
Kamenica.
