Gijsbrecht van Aemstelpark, Public park and national monument in Amsterdam-Zuid, Netherlands.
The park extends along Van Nijenrodeweg between Amstelveenseweg and Europaboulevard, featuring walking paths, open grass areas, and various tree species.
Established in 1962, the park emerged from a municipal design competition won by Wim Boer, who advocated for functionalist style with straight lines.
The park contains multiple art installations, including Ruiten by Frans and Marja de Boer-Lichtveld and Liggende figuren by Jan Snoeck.
The area includes designated paths for pedestrians and cyclists, with recent renovations adding water features and adventure play zones.
The space is divided into five distinct sections with names like Twikkel, Cannenburg, and Hunneschans, each maintaining its individual character.
