Created by students and scholars at Cleveland State University as a “peace garden,” the Cleveland Cultural Gardens are a living monument to the rich history of twentieth-century America. The gardens, of which there are 29, are designed to reveal the stories of the major conflicts that gave shape to the century, including important events such as World War I, World War II, and the Cold War.
The gardens also provide insight into the social, economic, political, and cultural upheavals that influenced the nation during the last century. Some of the more popular featured gardens include the Albanian Cultural Garden, the Armenian Garden, The Polish Garden, the Slovenian Garden, and the Czech Garden. Enjoy guided tours through the gardens, which will give you behind-the-scenes information about the gardens and the intimate details surrounding them, as well as the cultural heroes that are linked to them. 750 East 88th Street, Cleveland, Ohio
