King Albert Park, Urban park in Ghent, Belgium.
The Koning Albertpark spans 3.6 hectares in the southeastern section of Ghent, featuring long rows of benches and ancient plane trees.
Following the removal of Zuid station in 1928, the area transformed into a neo-baroque park, receiving its current name after King Albert I in 1934.
The park contains memorial columns from the former station restaurant and a monument dedicated to victims of both World Wars.
Visitors can access the park through nearby tram stops or park their vehicles in the adjacent underground parking facility outside the Low Emission Zone.
The park maintains its original geometric art-deco layout from the 1930s, with dedicated areas for petanque courts and children's play zones.
