Søndermarken, Historic park in Frederiksberg, Denmark.

Located on the border of Valby and Carlsberg area, Søndermarken spans across hills with meadows, forests, and numerous walking paths throughout the grounds.

The park originated alongside Frederiksberg Gardens, and its three underground cisterns formed part of Copenhagen's first municipal water supply system in the 19th century.

The Memorial Mound, constructed in 1925, features a sculpture of Mother Denmark embracing her children, commemorating Danish immigration to America with royal family attendance.

The park includes dedicated areas for children, multiple jogging trails, and connects directly to public transportation networks for easy access from central Copenhagen.

The former water cisterns now function as an underground exhibition space named Cisternerne, hosting contemporary art installations in a subterranean environment.
