Zrinski Park (Croatian: Perivoj Zrinskih) is situated in downtown Čakovec, northern Croatia, close to the central square.
The area had been a part of the city fortification since the 13th century. The castle, located in the centre of the Park, was owned by the Zrinski family between the 16th and the 18th century. It is known today as the "Old Town of the Zrinskis" (Croatian: Stari grad Zrinskih) and is an important landmark.
