Park imeni Tsiolkovskogo (Tsiolkovsky Park) was developed in the 18th century and there are lime (linden) trees there which are over 200 years old here. It was a favourite place for Tsiolkovsky to walk around and in 1935 upon the death of the great scientist it was unanimously decided to bury him in the park and to rename it in his honour. A 12.5 metre obelisk was later erected over the grave where Tsiolkovsky was laid to rest.
