Prinsentuin, Public park in central Leeuwarden, Netherlands.

The Prinsentuin features geometric flower gardens, tree-lined paths, a music pavilion, and multiple water features across its landscaped grounds.

Initially constructed as part of Leeuwarden's defense walls, the space transformed into a private garden for the Nassau family in 1648 after the Dutch independence war.

The park's music dome hosts free Sunday afternoon concerts during summer months, continuing a long-standing tradition of public entertainment in Leeuwarden.

Located in the heart of Leeuwarden, the park includes multiple entrances, walking paths, seating areas, and connects to a marina for water sports enthusiasts.

The garden's transformation from a military fortification to a royal private space and finally to public grounds reflects the evolution of Dutch urban development.
