Echelmeyerpark

Echelmeyerpark, Public park in St. Johann district of Saarbrücken, Germany.

Echelmeyerpark is a park in the Nauwieser Viertel of St. Johann, Saarbrücken, bounded by Kantstraße to the east and Schumannstraße to the south, with the Technisch-Gewerbliches Berufsbildungszentrum complex along its north and west sides. It consists mainly of lawns with old trees, a playground at its centre, St. Michael Church on the south-western edge and a former cemetery chapel south of the playground.

The cemetery on the Rotenberg was closed in the 1880s. In 1923, when St. Michael Church was built on the site, the grounds became Echelmeyerpark, named after pastor Alois Echelmeyer. The former cemetery chapel and two war memorials remain in the park.

The former cemetery chapel south of the playground is a listed building; its classicist columns earn it the local nickname "Tempel". Two war memorials stand in the grounds, one for the dead of the Franco-Prussian War and one for those of the First World War.

The park has several benches scattered along its paths and a playground for children in the central area. The eastern edge meets Kantstraße and the southern edge meets Schumannstraße, which helps with orientation when visiting.

In October 2017, students Carolina Goberna Caride and Nijat Mammadbayli planted a handkerchief tree (Taschentuchbaum) here together with then-mayor Ralf Latz. The tree was meant to thank people in Germany for their solidarity in taking in refugees.
