Located within the city’s Inner Green Belt near Aachener Weiher and the Museum of East Asian Art, the park was established on post-war rubble and named by the Cologne Peace Forum to honor Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Its landscape blends serene green spaces, walking paths, and reflective sculptures that invite contemplation on the devastating impact of nuclear warfare. The park’s tranquil atmosphere makes it a popular spot for strolls, picnics, and quiet reflection, while its historical significance encourages dialogue about peace and reconciliation. Families enjoy the open lawns and playgrounds, and visitors often pause by the memorials to consider the importance of global unity and disarmament. Once a site of political gatherings during the Nazi era, the park now stands as a symbol of transformation, resilience, and hope for a more peaceful future
