In the early twentieth century Stryiskyi Park is considered one of the most beautiful parks in Europe. Half a century ago the Stryiskyi Park was with sand dunes and steep ravines. The park was founded in 1879 in place of former Stryisky cemetery.

In 1930 here was the first radio in Lviv where was broadcasting the transfer of two humorists Tontsya and Scheptsya.
Tontso and Scheptso were so popular that they and their characters were featured in texts of popular songs of Lviv. Sam "head" of the Polish state dictator Pilsudski gave their comments to the programs Tontsya and Scheptsya.
