福井市中央公園

福井市中央公園, Urban park in downtown Fukui, Japan

Fukui Central Park is a neighbourhood park in the Ōte 3-chōme district of Fukui, next to the Fukui City Hall and the site of Fukui Castle. A 2013 city plan called for integrating the castle site and the park, with the park's own redevelopment to be carried out first by 2015. The bronze statue of former Prime Minister Keisuke Okada that stood in the park was moved to Fukui Station in 2016.

In November 2013 Fukui City published a basic plan to integrate the Fukui Castle site with Central Park, with the park's own redevelopment scheduled to be completed ahead of the rest by 2015. The bronze statue of former Prime Minister Keisuke Okada that stood in the park was moved to the Fukui Station forecourt in 2016.

The park served as a celebration venue for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic torch relay, with around 10,000 torchbearers chosen by public application. The organizing committee reported 535,717 applications from the public recruitment run by four sponsor companies and each prefecture's executive committee. Nearby stand the Fukui City Hall, Sakae-no-sha shrine and Fukui Shrine.

The park sits a short walk from Fukui Station and offers restroom facilities available around the clock. The visitor center opens during daytime hours and provides information about the grounds.
