Parc Hamelin Oberthür, Urban park in Rennes, France.

The 3.1-hectare park features a central pond with a pier, multiple footpaths, children's play areas, and a collection of 375 different trees.

Landscape architect Denis Bühler designed this park in 1863 for François-Charles Oberthür, who started acquiring land in 1858 to create a private garden.

The park served as an exhibition space during the 1982 Rennes-Sculpture event, displaying numerous artistic works throughout its grounds.

Four entry points provide access to the park: rue de Paris, boulevard Jeanne d'Arc, square Roland Garros, and rue René Marcille.

The park houses several rare tree specimens, including Cedar of Lebanon, Atlas Cedar, and Giant Sequoia, alongside a pond inhabited by carp and turtles.
