Südpark, Dresden, Public park in Plauen district, Dresden, Germany.

Südpark is a green space of about 36 hectares in the Plauen district featuring forests, meadows, and open fields spread across different elevation levels. Pathways connect the outer cemetery and lead to the Liepschs Ruhe viewpoint while linking nearby streets.

The brickworks and their clay pits on the site had stopped operating by 1930; from 1941 the pits were filled with rubble, household waste and ash until about 1991. Between January and October 1952 one of Dresden's debris railways tipped some 200,000 cubic metres of rubble here from the Wilsdruffer and Seevorstadt districts, creating embankments up to six metres high. The landfills closed in 1991.

The name Liepschs Ruhe marks a bastion built in 1936 as a lookout over Dresden, planted with four linden trees where a simple bench had stood. Today the viewpoint is screened by unchecked trees along Westendring and Plauenscher Ring. The park is planned as a Landschaftspark combining woodland, meadows, farmland and water retention basins.

The park is accessible from several points off Nöthnitzer Straße and Kohlenstraße with marked pathways for visitors on foot. Wearing sturdy shoes is advisable since the terrain has varying elevations and uneven sections in places.

Liepschs Ruhe, a bastion with four linden trees, was built in 1936 as a lookout over Dresden, replacing a simple bench. Trees around Westendring and Plauenscher Ring have since blocked the view it was made for.
