Türkenschanzpark

The park, situated in the 18th district, is one of the biggest parks with an dimension of 150.000 m2. It's name comes from the designation for the area derived from the hist. Turkish entrenchment found at the site.
After 1892 the park was managed and redesigned by the city of Vienna. At this time a small pond was added.

The Türkenschanz Park is known for its interesting, rare botanical plants and the unusual makeup of the landscape. Hills are interspersed with meadows, and meandering paths invite the visitor to take a stroll.
