Abstract: This work is a part of a wider research project of historic greenery in south-western region of Slovakia. As a model object
was chosen garden parterre of a 19th century landscape park in the village of Palarikovo in Nove Zamky district. As a working
method was chosen non-invasive underground research with the use of georadar X3M equipped with 500 MHz shielded antenna of Swedish company MALÅ. Research results were processed by software Rad Explorer 1.41 and GroundVision 2.
Planar scanning of the eastern half of parterre in range 30 × 50 m was chosen with the goal to verify presumption on an existence of a formal parterre design preserved in graphic plans dated 1794. Decision was made due to expectation of
symmetry in composition of classicistic parterre. A set of 100 scans in a perpendicular direction to the main parterre axis (each 25 to 30 m long repeated each 50 cm). As controls were made 5 scans parallel with the main parterre axis (each 50 m
long repeated each 5 m). The research itself was made during the summer months in 2012 as the best scanning results can be reached only in dry and warm conditions. According the research results we come to the conclusion that historic garden
parterre proposals of a formal design were never realised. There were readable only marks of the composition from the turn of the 19th and 20th century.
