Franckepark, Public park in Tempelhof, Germany

The Franckepark spans 60,000 square meters between Albrechtstrasse and Theodor-Francke-Strasse, connecting with Bosepark, Alter Park, and Lehnepark to form a recreation area.

In 1875, Jonathan Kaehler transformed the grounds into a private park for merchant Theodor Francke, who generated wealth through trading exotic plants and ivory.

The park received a complete renovation in 1925, incorporating landscape features, a rose garden, and dedicated spaces for community gatherings and recreational activities.

Runners frequent the park for its three different running tracks with gentle inclines, while barrier-free access points exist via Tempelhofer Rathaus, Götzstrasse, and Albrechtstrasse.

Until 2019, the park contained a fallow deer enclosure, and featured a bronze owl sculpture that reflected car headlights until its disappearance in 2013.
