EN The work discusses the evolution of historical residential gardens. Their mutability is chartered against the changing aesthetic canons in subsequent epochs in the context of technical and technological evolution. The aim of the work is to show that despite the changing times, garden designers repeat the same or similar solutions that they interpret in accordance with the spirit and possibilities of successive epochs. Gardens accompanied the residences of rulers, aristocrats, and the church hierarchy. Always, the search for the beauty of the garden took place on the real and speculative levels, allowing for achieving harmony in accordance with the accepted cultural canons.
