Philippe Park is 92 rich-in-history acres. This is the oldest park in Pinellas County and is located in Safety Harbor. The majestic shade trees and the Native American mound welcome visitors to the park.  The Temple Mound was built by Native Americans known as the Tocobaga. It is the largest remaining mound in the Tampa Bay region and is listed in the National Register of Historic Landmarks.
