Park Valkenberg, Public park in central Breda, Netherlands
The urban green space features a large fountain pond, old trees, flowerbeds, and remnants of medieval defense towers along former city walls.
Originally serving as the castle gardens of Breda Castle, the area transformed into a public park when the municipality acquired it in 1881.
The Nassau-Baronie Monument at the park entrance, unveiled by Queen Wilhelmina in 1905, commemorates 500 years of Nassau family rule in Breda.
The park connects the central station to downtown Breda, offering walking paths, children's playground, and the T-Huis café with outdoor seating.
The name Valkenberg derives from medieval falconry activities, as the Nassau lords kept their hunting falcons in special houses within these grounds.
