Tenbosch Park, Public park in Ixelles, Belgium.
Tenbosch Park is a two-hectare green space in Brussels's Ixelles district with over one hundred notable trees. Winding pathways connect the landscape and lead past multiple water features distributed throughout the grounds.
The land originally belonged to the Solvay family until 1981 when the Brussels Region purchased it for public use. The transformation into a park was completed in 1986, making it a relatively recent addition to the city's public spaces.
A bronze sculpture called 'Standing Woman' by artist Helene Delvaux stands near one of the water features in the park. The artwork sits quietly within the green space and invites visitors to pause and reflect.
The park entrance is located between Chaussée de Vleurgat and Mélèzes and Hector-Denis streets, with play areas for children located throughout. Visitors will find multiple access points and spaces to spend time at different corners of the grounds.
The park holds seventy registered remarkable trees, including rare species like the Asian Hovenia and Mongolian Lime. This collection makes it a quiet destination for those interested in botany and ancient trees.
