In 1892, the spa park, a truly unique gem, was created by landscape gardener Franz Erban. The artificial section with the "Lenau Island," the shady, winding park paths, and, above all, the pavilion built in 1903, have made the park a popular meeting place for Reichenau's summer society.

The Music Pavilion is the highlight of the Kupark. It is a listed monument and was restored in 2020/2021.
