גן רמז
גן ייחודי בעיר העתיקה הנקרא על שמו של דוד רמז (1886–1951), חבר כנסת ושר בממשלת ישראל, מפעילי תנועת העבודה. רמז עמד בראש חברת ’סולל בונה’, היה חבר מועצת עיריית תל-אביב, מזכיר ההסתדרות הכללית וראש הוועד הלאומי. ב- 1946 נאסר בידי הבריטים ב’שבת השחורה’ ונכלא בכלא לטרון. רמז נמנה על חותמי מגילת העצמאות, היה לשר התחבורה הראשון בממשלת ישראל וכיהן כשר החינוך והתרבות.
בגן התקיימו במהלך השנים אירועים רבים וב– 1995 נערכה הביאנלה לקרמיקה במסגרתה הוצגו בגן פסלים ייחודיים. בשנת 2017 עבר הגן תהליכי חידוש ופיתוח וכיום משמש שטח ציבורי פתוח לקהל הרחב.
