Parque Germânia, Public park in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
Parque Germânia is a public park in Porto Alegre spanning more than 15 hectares with tennis courts, basketball courts, and soccer fields. A lake surrounded by native vegetation forms the central landscape feature of the grounds.
The park opened in 2006 as a new recreational space for Porto Alegre residents. Its creation reflected the city's ongoing development and investment in public green spaces.
The park honors German immigration to Rio Grande do Sul through its name and a memorial plaque recognizing contributions of hard work and community values. Visitors encounter this heritage while walking through the grounds.
The park opens early in the morning and remains accessible until evening hours, with multiple entrances positioned around the grounds. Parking is available to accommodate visitors arriving by car.
The grounds contain over a thousand plant species, many of them native to the region and found nowhere else in the city. Restricted areas protect these plants and animals from disturbance.
