Kulturpark Neubrandenburg, Cultural heritage park in Neubrandenburg, Germany.
Kulturpark Neubrandenburg stretches from the north shore of Lake Tollensee to Friedrich-Engels-Ring, between the Oberbach and Gätenbach streams. Built from 1969 to 1972, it covers about ten hectares on the filled site of the former Werderbruch marsh. The park holds promenades, meadows, perennial and moor beds, playgrounds, sculptures and a sundial; the Stadthalle, a hypar shell by Ulrich Müther, opened in its southern part in 1969.
The area was known as Werderbruch in medieval times, a swampy region that provided natural protection for the town. In the late 1960s, this land was transformed and redesigned into a modern cultural space.
The park's name refers to its role as a cultural park, laid out from 1969 with voluntary citizen labour under the Nationales Aufbauwerk. Residents built promenades, lawns, herbaceous and moor beds and playgrounds, and added sculptures and a sundial. The Neubrandenburger Stadthalle, a hypar shell by architect Ulrich Müther, opened in the southern part in 1969.
The park features extensive walking paths and inviting spaces to pause along the way. Visitors should explore different sections depending on their interests, since playgrounds, gardens, and lake access are spread throughout the grounds.
Two Neolithic stone cists were relocated to the southern border zone, adding prehistoric depth to the site. These archaeological elements link the ancient history of the region with the modern landscape experience.
