Invalid's Park, Public park in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
Invalid's Park is a 2.5 hectare green space in Berlin-Mitte next to the main train station featuring lawn areas, water basins, and granite sculptures. The park is bounded by four streets and offers multiple pathways for walking and sitting.
The park was created in 1843 as a garden for residents of the Invalid's House. After decades of neglect, it underwent complete restoration between 1992 and 1997.
The granite memorial in the water basin connects two significant moments of the site: the destroyed Gnadenkirche church and the nearby Berlin Wall segment. Visitors can experience the layered history of Berlin directly through the park's design.
The park sits at the intersection of several streets and is easily accessible by various transportation options. The flat pathways and open green areas work well for all types of visitors.
The Invalid's Column from 1854 stands in the park as a memorial for soldiers who died during the 1848 and 1849 revolution and the Prussian-Danish War. This monument is often overlooked despite its importance to 19th century Prussian military history.
