Krusenkoppel, Public park in Düsternbrook district, Kiel, Germany

The 5.7-hectare park features rolling hills, ancient trees, and an outdoor theater with 2,000 seats located between Niemannsweg and Düsternbrooker Weg.

In 1856, farmer Heinrich Wilhelm Kruse acquired the land and later bequeathed it to the city of Kiel with specific conditions for its preservation.

During the Kiel Week festival, the park transforms into 'Spiellinie', hosting Europe's largest outdoor cultural program dedicated to children and families.

The park's natural slopes provide winter recreation opportunities, with a designated sledding run extending 100 to 150 meters, maintained by city services.

Twelve 200-year-old lime trees known as 'The 12 Apostles' form a distinctive ring near the entrance to the open-air theater.
