Mindeparken, Memorial park next to Marselisborg Palace in Aarhus, Denmark.

The extensive limestone monument displays 4,140 names of Danish soldiers who lost their lives during World War I across multiple stone panels.

King Christian X inaugurated the park in 1925, initially designed as a gathering place for Danish citizens living abroad before its transformation into a memorial site.

Every November 11, the park hosts a commemorative ceremony to honor fallen Danish soldiers, maintaining the connection between past and present generations.

The park includes specialized sections such as Træsamlingen with its botanical tree collection and Rømerhaven featuring sculptures and flower arrangements.

The Donbæk Houses, constructed in 1828 and 1850 for manor servants, remain as historical structures within the park's southern section.
