Tour Overview
Welcome to Delano Park
Morgan County has a history that stretches back even further than Alabama Statehood, and Delano Park has an equally impressive history. Established in 1887, Delano Park is the county’s oldest city park that has been in continuous operation. These 28 acres host a variety of native and non-native plants that give an atmosphere of peace and quietness despite being in the midst of Decatur’s hustle and bustle.
This tour focuses on the flora of the park, providing information about trees and how to identify them, as well as information for children to enjoy learning about the plants and animals to be found in their park.
