Klingelpützpark, Public park in Altstadt-Nord, Germany.

The green space extends over two hectares with sports facilities including basketball courts, table tennis areas, and a skateboarding ramp in central Cologne.

The land previously held Cologne City Prison until 1969, when the facility moved to Ossendorf, allowing transformation of this space into a public park.

A memorial stone designed by Hans Karl Burgeff marks the northwestern hill, commemorating over 1000 individuals who lost their lives during prison executions.

The park maintains constant accessibility throughout the year, situated near Hansaring station, with multiple entrances from Vogteistraße and Kyotostraße.

The terrain incorporates construction debris from the demolished prison to form an elevation on the northwestern section of the grounds.
