Linn Park, Urban park in Downtown Birmingham, Alabama.

Linn Park is an urban park spanning seven acres between Birmingham City Hall and the Jefferson County Courthouse in downtown Birmingham. The space features walking paths, fountains, gardens, and open lawns that accommodate various activities and gatherings.

The park was originally established as Capitol Park and underwent several name changes before being renamed for Charles Linn in the 1980s. In 2020, it became a focal point during social justice movements when major monuments were removed from the site.

The park's name honours Charles Linn, a Confederate naval officer and businessman, since the 1980s; before that it was Capitol Park, Woodrow Wilson Park and Central Park. The plinth of the Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument, a 52-foot obelisk erected by the Daughters of the Confederacy in 1905, remains after the mayor removed the obelisk in 2020. A statue of Linn, installed in 2013, was toppled on May 31, 2020, and the state Attorney General filed a lawsuit against the city in response.

The seven-acre park lies between Birmingham City Hall on its west side and the Jefferson County Courthouse on its east, so it is crossed on foot from either building. The grounds are open lawns and paved walks; the plinth of the removed Confederate obelisk still stands in the park.

The park is overlooked by Birmingham City Hall on its west side and the Jefferson County Courthouse on its east side. From 1905 to 2020 it held the 52-foot Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument obelisk, erected by the Daughters of the Confederacy; the mayor had it removed in 2020, leaving only the plinth.
