Oorsprongpark, Public park in Buiten Wittevrouwen neighborhood, Utrecht, Netherlands

The park extends along the Biltsche Grift waterway and connects with Snellenlaan, the railway line Hilversum-Lunetten, and Biltstraat.

The park takes its name from an 1823 house called De Oorsprong and was designed by Utrecht garden architect Hendrik van Lunteren.

A group of ten monumental townhouses, designed by architect Derk Semmelink in 1886, stands along the 90-meter street adjacent to the park.

The park maintains connections to multiple transportation routes and provides green space near Utrecht University and the city shopping district.

During World War II, the corner building at Maliebaan functioned as a facility for the Nachrichtungabteilung der Luftwaffe military operations.
