Stadtgarten Gelsenkirchen, Urban park in Gelsenkirchen, Germany
The Stadtgarten spans 22 hectares with winding paths, long avenues, exotic trees, meadows, and colorful flower beds throughout the green space.
Originally opened in 1897 as Kaiser Wilhelm Park on 6 hectares of former farmland, the garden expanded multiple times between 1901 and 1918.
The music pavilion hosts the annual SommerSound festival, featuring folk music performances from European and American bands in an outdoor setting.
Visitors can access multiple playgrounds, tennis courts, walking trails, and a restaurant while exploring different sections of the park.
The northern section contains a Japanese Kare-san-sui style rock garden, created in 2009, displaying traditional stone and gravel arrangements.
