Krupp-Park

Krupp-Park is a public park built on the former steel factory grounds, featuring walking trails, open lawns, and an artificial lake. The lake collects rainwater through an integrated drainage system connected to surrounding buildings.

The site was home to the Krupp steel factory until its destruction during World War II, one of Europe's largest industrial operations. After the war, the grounds were gradually transformed into a green space.

The park serves as a gathering place where locals take walks and spend leisure time among the trees and open spaces. It reflects how the neighborhood has transformed and now uses this land for relaxation and nature.

The park offers multiple entry points and parking areas distributed throughout, making it easy to access. Walking and cycling paths connect it to nearby neighborhoods, allowing visitors to explore freely without obstacles.

The park's water system is engineered to capture every raindrop that falls on nearby buildings and guide it through the grounds. This collected water eventually flows into the Borbecker Mill Stream, a waterway that runs beyond the park.
