Park Kolište I. je soucástí parkového areálu založeného na okruhu rušeného mestského opevnení v místech dnešního Moravského nám. a ul. Kolište. Pojmenování parku je odvozeno od názvu otevreného prostoru pred hradbami opevnení. Na kolišti pred hradbami byly vysazovány procházkové lipové aleje už od roku 1793.

V roce 1835 bylo celé kolište od Moravského námestí až k parku Denisovy sady (dríve Františkov) osazeno alejemi, které byly od roku 1836 rušeny výstavbou nádraží a celnice. V polovine 19. století byl po zrušení hradeb a bastionu mezi dnešními ulicemi Kolište a Rooseveltova založen reprezentacní okružní park. V roce 1864 byly zahradníkem Antonínem Šebánkem zahájeny další úpravy parku. Hlavní osou parku byla stredová alej s hudebním pavilonem, promenádní stromovka s kavárnou, rondely s lavicemi a kvetinovými rabaty, s litinovými kašnami, s meteorologickým sloupem z roku 1886 a s pomníky. Na konci 19. století a ve 20. století byly v okružním parku postupne postaveny reprezentacní budovy. Park Kolište je prvním významným príkladem okružního parku v ceských zemích.
