Gesztenyéskert

Gesztenyéskert, Park in Németvölgy, Budapest, Hungary

Gesztenyéskert is a roughly 35,000-square-metre public park in the Németvölgy valley of District XII, bordered by Alkotás utca, Jagelló út, Sirály sétány and Csörsz utca. Its central promenade is lined with horse chestnut trees kept from the former Németvölgyi cemetery, and a playground built with sculptors and folk artists lies west of the swimming pool.

The park was created in 1984 following construction of the Budapest Congress Center, with trees preserved from the former Németvölgyi cemetery. This transformation turned a burial ground into a public green space for community use.

The park holds several memorials: Gerenday Antal's 1877 obelisk for the honvéd graves of 1848–49, moved here in 1935 from the Tabán cemetery; Somogyi József and Finta József's Monument to the Victims of Fascism, unveiled in 1985; and Szmrecsányi Boldizsár's 2016 sculpture The Soaring Bird of Freedom, on the site of Kovács Gábor's 1992 1956 memorial column.

The park is easily accessible and well-suited for jogging, children's activities, and walking dogs throughout the grounds. Drinking fountains and paths are placed conveniently for comfortable exploration.

László Paizs's sculpture 'Kettős gömb' (Double Sphere) was installed in 1980 at the start of Jagelló út, not by the Congress Center. The two-sphere work stands at the park's southwestern edge, where the street borders the grounds.
