Boekenbergpark, Public park in Deurne Antwerp, Belgium

The 10-hectare green space features walking paths, gardens, and two swimming pools with depths ranging from 50 centimeters to 2.50 meters.

Established around 1800, the park surrounds a rococo-style villa and includes a ruin tower and cave complex with ice cellars dating from that period.

The Natuurhistorisch Museum Boekenberg, housed in the park's underground corridors, displays collections of paleontology, archaeology, mineralogy, and prehistoric artifacts.

The ecological swimming pond, open from mid-May to mid-September, uses natural purification through special flooring and 22,000 plants in its helophyte filter.

During winter months, the swimming pond becomes the exclusive training ground for the Deurnese IJsberen winter swimming group.
