Due to the renovations, bushes and nine memorial trees were placed in the garden in honor of the nine former directors.

There is also a promenade in the area, which is decorated by the works of art prepared by pediatric patients of the department.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cThe opening of this garden connects three things. On the one hand, it is part of the Green University program, in the course of which we try to give back as much green space as possible to nature. On the other hand, it means respect for the traditions represented by the nine memorial trees. Thirdly, it is closely connected to the pediatric patients cared for at our department, since the works of art decorating the promenade were prepared by the children of the Pediatric Psychiatry Unit within the framework of the art therapy session\u201d, said Dr. Attila Szab\u00f3, Vice-Rector for Clinical Affairs, Director of the 1<sup>st<\/sup> Department of Pediatrics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">He expressed his appreciation to those colleagues who helped create the Schoepf-Merei garden: Anna Bern\u00e1th, senior economic coordinator, Dr. \u00c9va Kisn\u00e9 Cseh, librarian and P\u00e9ter Cserny\u00e1k, leader of the working group of analysts and therapists.
