Volksgarten, Urban park in Lend district, Graz, Austria.

The Volksgarten covers 4.6 hectares with walking paths, dual pond system, steel water wheel, and diverse tree species throughout the landscape.

Established in 1875 as a complement to Stadtpark, the Volksgarten expanded in 1897 with additions of a children's playground and ice rink.

The Karl Morré Monument, constructed in 1907, stands as a tribute to the Austrian poet and politician within the park grounds.
