Universitätspark Schwäbisch Gmünd, Educational park and cultural monument in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany.

The Universitätspark spans seven hectares with 19 buildings, featuring landscaped gardens, recreational areas, and educational facilities within its grounds.

Built between 1911 and 1914 as Bismarck-Kaserne military barracks, the site housed the 10th Württemberg Infantry Regiment and later served as US Army headquarters.

The park integrates multiple educational institutions, including the Landesgymnasium für Hochbegabte and Campusmuseum, which documents the site's military heritage.

The complex contains designated walking paths, public transport connections, and various amenities such as childcare services at Kinderhaus Regenbogenland.
