Friedensplatz, Public park in central Oberhausen, Germany.

The Friedensplatz extends 180 meters in length and 50 meters in width, featuring water basins, flower beds and rows of plane trees.

The area transformed from an industrial site of Styrumer Eisenindustrie AG factory, which operated from 1854 to 1902, into a public space connecting the train station.

The plaza is surrounded by notable buildings constructed between 1924 and 1927, displaying the architectural style of Brick Expressionism.

The plaza remains accessible at all times without entry fees and connects directly to Oberhausen Central Station through pedestrian pathways.

The District Court building from 1907 stands at the northern edge, representing Neo-Renaissance architecture with its historicizing design elements.
