Brandywine Park, Urban park in Wilmington, Delaware.
The 300-acre Brandywine Park features numerous trails, bridges, and open spaces along the banks of Brandywine Creek in Delaware's largest city.
Frederick Law Olmsted designed this park in 1883 after Delaware's legislature passed a bill to establish public recreation spaces for Wilmington residents.
The park houses the Brandywine Zoo, which conducts educational programs about wildlife conservation and maintains a collection of diverse animal species.
Multiple entrances connect to downtown Wilmington, with dedicated parking areas, picnic facilities, and playgrounds distributed throughout the grounds.
Three historic bridges span across Brandywine Creek within the park boundaries, connecting different sections and providing structural elements from the original design.
