Lenin Komsomol park (Ukrainian: Парк культури і відпочинку ім. Ленінського комсомолу) is a popular recreation area in Donetsk. It was considered back in 1952, when Central Scherbakov Park of Culture and Leisure could no more fully address the city needs because "Shakhtar" stadium was built on its territory. The park was laid out only in 1956 due to numerous modifications of design; the same year the 20th anniversary of Maxim Gorky death was commemorated, so the park was first named after M.Gorky. In 1958 the 40th Anniversary of Lenin Komsomol alley was established, and the park was subsequently renamed to Lenin Komsomol Park (official renaming in 1972).
