Monza Park (Parco di Monza) is a large walled park in Monza, Lombardy, northern Italy. Extending over an area of 688 hectares (6.88 km2), it is the fourth largest walled park in Europe, and the fourth largest enclosed one after la Mandria of Venaria Reale (Italy), Richmond Park in London (England) and Phoenix Park in Dublin (Ireland).
The park was commissioned by Napoleon's stepson Eugène de Beauharnais, during the French occupation of northern Italy, as external part of the garden of his royal palace (the Royal Villa of Monza); it was completed in 1808.
Is crossed in its southern sector by the Lambro river. Some one third is occupied by wood, while the rest is kept as lawn.
From 1922, inside the Park is located the Autodromo Nazionale of Monza.

Monza is a Belgian rock band, founded by Stijn Meuris, originally a member of Noordkaap. When Noordkaap stopped making music, Meuris formed Monza. They have released 3 albums so far: Van God Los, Grand and recently Attica!.
In 2005 they made the theme song for the 175 years of independence of Belgium "Ik hou van u/Je t'aime tu sais". It was an adaptation of the Noordkaap hit "Ik hou van u" in collaboration with Marie Daulne (Zap Mama).
