Mariapark, Public park in Lommel-Werkplaatsen, Belgium.

The Mariapark spans over 14,000 square meters of land, featuring walking paths, green spaces, and concrete religious monuments across its grounds.

In 1925, Capuchin friars established the park's foundation by building a monastery and school, followed by a Lourdes grotto construction in 1927.

The park contains seven chapels dedicated to the Seven Sorrows of Mary, complete with white-painted bas-reliefs made from reinforced concrete.

Visitors can access the park through nearby bus stops and find parking facilities adjacent to the main entrance throughout the year.

The park includes a constructed Calvary Hill, where sand was manually moved to create an elevation for the religious monument.
