Wollepark der Nordwolle

Wollepark der Nordwolle, Public park in Delmenhorst, Germany.

Wollepark der Nordwolle is a public park within the former wool processing factory grounds, offering open meadows, fitness stations, and a playground arranged around a pond. The green space blends natural areas with modern recreation facilities for visitors of all ages.

Wilhelm Benque laid out the English landscape park around Villa Lahusen in 1893 for Carl Lahusen, son of Nordwolle founder Christian Lahusen. It stayed closed to workers and the public, open only to the family and senior staff of nearby company houses, until the Nordwolle bankruptcy of 1931. After the Second World War it was closed again and in 1975 sold to the city of Delmenhorst. About half of Benque's park survives.

The park is named after the Nordwolle wool combing and spinning works that operated here from 1884 to 1981. The surrounding Wollepark housing estate was built between 1969 and 1976 with originally 1388 flats in buildings up to nine storeys high; some of the tall blocks were demolished after 2017.

The park lies between Fabrikhof, Nordwollestraße, Stedingerstraße and Pommerstraße, with the Delme flowing through it. About half of Benque's original landscape park survives, alongside a large meadow, a pond, a fitness area, a playground, the Wollepark primary school, a youth centre and a Diakonie neighbourhood centre. The small wood toward Schwabenstraße is a nature-education discovery forest run by the Parkschule and a kindergarten.

The park that survives is only about half of Wilhelm Benque's 1893 design; the rest was built over between 1969 and 1976 by the Wollepark housing estate, originally 1,388 flats in blocks up to nine storeys, some of the tall buildings demolished after 2017.
