One of the most beautiful and unusual sights of Kaliningrad sculpture Park is located in the city center, on Kant island (Kneiphof). Park-open air Museum, founded in 1984, is a branch of the Museum of history and art.

In the collection of the Park Museum are more than thirty works of Russian sculptors, which are based on the monuments to outstanding figures of culture - poets, writers, composers, and relief sculpture, United by the theme "Man and world".

In addition, the Park is home to over a thousand copies of different species of plants and shrubs imported from Europe, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Japan, North and South America. Trees and shrubs were planted mainly in the 1960s, on the site of the destroyed during the Second world quarters of the island.

Since March 2007, the sculpture Park has the status of an object of cultural heritage (local significance). Picturesque Park-open air Museum was included in the project of transforming the island into an architectural-archaeological complex with the subsequent revival of urban development of old Konigsberg. Surrounded by a Park of sculptures is the main architectural attraction of Kaliningrad Cathedral, which houses the Museum of Kant and regular concerts of organ music.
