Plan a visit

The Nelson Mandela Park in Aachen is best known for its old trees.

The former public park and private garden of the von Halfern family offers a nice opportunity to take a leisurely walk and lie on the meadow. It owes its former name “old clinic park” to the use of the park by the old university clinic on Goethestrasse. It is accessible from several streets, but the easiest to find is the entrance on Goethestrasse.
