Grüttpark Lörrach, Public park in Lörrach, Germany
Grüttpark is a large public park in Lörrach featuring artificial streams, a lake, rose gardens, and protected natural habitats across its expanse. The landscape includes diverse areas with water features, planted gardens, and preserved ecological zones for visitors to explore.
The land was originally used for hunting and later for agriculture before being transformed into a state garden exhibition in 1983. This major change required extensive landscape redesign and land modifications.
The space beneath the highway bridge serves as a rotating gallery where regional artists display graffiti works that change throughout the year. This area has become an important outlet for local creative expression and contemporary art in the city.
The park offers multiple sports facilities including disc golf, pump tracks, skating areas, and paths for cycling and inline skating. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time to explore the different zones across the grounds.
The park was designed with extensive planting around deep wells, serving both as a recreational space and a water protection zone. This dual purpose means the vegetation plays an active role in groundwater management and conservation.
