Beskrivelse

The Tivoli peninsula is a good example of the type of landscape that Gustav III intended to create around Brunnsviken in the 1780s. The name Tivoli is inspired by the King’s Italian journey in 1783–84. In the 1780s Tivoli was placed at the disposal of the ambassador of Paris, Gustav Philip Creutz, who planned to build a residence and pleasure park. The landscape architect of the Haga Park, Fredrik Magnus Piper, was engaged to design the park in the same English landscape style as Haga. However, Creutz died in 1785 and the work stopped. Creutz’ effects and his debts were taken over by Gustav III. The King considered placing his summer palace at Tivoli, but decided to focus on Haga instead. Nils Barck of Bergshamra took over Tivoli and erected a residence on the slope facing towards the water. Only the music pavilion remains today, but the thickly wooded Piper’s Park can still be enjoyed.
