Jönköping City Park, Urban park in Jönköping, Sweden.
Jönköping City Park is a large urban green space situated on an elevated plateau spanning approximately 37 hectares. The grounds include several zones with open lawns, recreational facilities, and an outdoor museum displaying traditional regional buildings.
The park opened in 1896 as a recreational area for city residents. Over time, historic regional buildings were relocated to the grounds, with one notable church moved there in 1902.
The museum section within the grounds showcases regional heritage buildings and crafts. Visitors encounter traditional architecture and daily life from past generations of Småland.
The park offers activities including mini-golf, playgrounds, duck feeding, and picnicking on large lawns with tables. The main areas are easily walkable and accessible for families with children.
The grounds feature fifteen named paths dedicated to notable women from Småland, including author Astrid Lindgren. These pathways honor important cultural and artistic figures from the region.
