Apslätten

Apslätten, Public park in eastern Gothenburg, Sweden.

Apslätten is a triangular, partly steep grassy clearing in the Kålltorp district of eastern Gothenburg, about 300 metres east of Delsjövägen. The surrounding woodland is mostly oak with other broadleaf trees and pine, kept trimmed and free of undergrowth, giving it a park-like character. An illuminated gravel pitch built in the 1970s adjoins the clearing.

Apslätten appears as a field with surrounding pasture on a map from 1796, when it was known as Apan. The name Kålltorps Apa is recorded in 1925 as "a grove of trees". In 1982 the Gothenburg connoisseur Sven Schånberg proposed in a Göteborgs-Posten debate article that the name comes from the area's shape resembling an ape sail, a triangular or trapezoidal sail.

The name Apslätten was officially confirmed by Gothenburg's Cultural Committee on 23 August 2012. In the 1950s, Lodge 58 Norden organised the "Kul på Apa" parties here, with performers such as Alice Babs, Thore Skogman and Lill-Babs. A picnic festival is held here every National Day.

The park sits about 300 meters east of Delsjövägen and is easy to reach on foot. Expect uneven terrain as the slope descends, which can be slippery during wet weather.

The name Apslätten was officially confirmed by Gothenburg's cultural committee on 23 August 2012. A rival explanation, argued by local historian Sven Schånberg in 1982, is that the name comes from the area's shape, like an apsegel, a triangular or trapezoidal sail.
