Carlisle Park, Public park in Südstadt, Flensburg, Germany.
Carlisle Park is a public green space in Flensburg's Südstadt district near the main train station. A semi-circular avenue frames a large open lawn area in the center.
The park was created in 1927 following the construction of Flensburg's main train station. It replaced a former mill pond that occupied the site before the station was built.
The park is named after the English twin city Carlisle and features tree sculptures carved from elm trees damaged by disease during the 1990s. Visitors can encounter these distinctive wooden artworks while walking through the space.
The park is easily accessible by bus, with multiple stops nearby. Parking is available near the entrance for those arriving by car.
At the northern edge stands a memorial featuring a drive train mounted on track sections, honoring Flensburg's former tram system. This artwork quietly preserves the memory of the city's past public transportation.
