Kungsparken, Urban park in central Gothenburg, Sweden.

Located behind Stora Teatern, Kungsparken spans 13 hectares and contains numerous mature trees along the Nya Allén walkway in Gothenburg's center.

The development of Kungsparken took place between 1839 and 1861, establishing it as one of the first public green spaces in Gothenburg.

During the 1940s and 1950s, Kungsparken functioned as a meeting point for the homosexual community of Gothenburg, marking its social significance.
