In the 1800s, public parks began to be established in Sweden. In 1881, an association was founded in Malmö called the Malmö beautification and planting of association (Malmö Förskönings- och planteringsförening). One of the founders, Gottfried Beijer, applied with his brother to lease a piece of land and began construction of Beijers park in 1885. The city took over the park in 1901 and it opened to the public in 1914.[1]
