Achterdiekpark, Public park in Oberneuland, Germany
Achterdiekpark is a public green space in Bremen's Oberneuland neighborhood featuring seven interconnected ponds surrounded by walking paths and mature trees. The ponds are positioned close together and create a varied landscape as you move through the park.
The site was originally used for agriculture, then housed an animal trading center, and functioned as a zoo from 1966 until 1973. After the zoo closed, the land was converted into a public park.
The park serves as a gathering place where neighbors walk, chat, and spend time together in nature. This everyday use shapes the character of the space and makes it central to the local community.
The park has a well-developed network of paths suitable for walking and cycling with multiple entry points throughout the area. Its convenient location with good public transportation connections makes it easy to reach from anywhere in Bremen.
The seven ponds provide habitat for frogs, newts, and toads that visitors may spot during warmer months. These water bodies serve as a natural refuge for these creatures and add an element of wildlife discovery to any visit.
