Volkspark Kleinzschocher, Public park in Kleinzschocher district, Leipzig, Germany

The 70-hectare Volkspark Kleinzschocher includes geometrically designed spaces, a rose parterre, perennial rondel, summer swimming pool, and multiple children's playgrounds.

The park opened in 1928 after the city purchased meadowland from Kleinzschocher estate, with initial designs created by city garden director Nikolaus Molzen.

A plaque marks where Johann Sebastian Bach premiered his Bauernkantate in 1742, leading to the nearby street being renamed Kantatenweg in 2001.

The park features wooden playground equipment, sandboxes, play sculptures, marble runs, and large play fields suitable for various recreational activities.

The Hain der Jahresbäume section displays trees designated as Trees of the Year from 1989 to 2014, planted on artificial mounds throughout the park.
