This section consists of a small plaza with a broad cobbled staircase and tunnel with a cobblestoned linden tree avenue, leading through the park, all the way to the city hall square.

The majority of the City Hall Park comprise an open lawn with large old trees scattered throughout, primarily south beech and magnolia.

The City Hall Park has four sculptures, all of women figures; Pigen af 1940 (Girl of 1940), Vågnende Kvinde (Waking Woman), Den Svangre (The Fated) and Atalante (Atalanta).

[5] "Girl of 1940" is a life-size bronze sculpture made by Svend Rathsack and placed in the park by Aarhus Municipality in 1941.

The aerial bombardments during the Second World War inspired the statue, depicting a young woman defensively holding her arms above herself.

The southern park section bordering the Scandic Plaza Hotel, used to have two partially covered bomb shelters, constructed during the Second World War.

In 1995, the park was listed along with the city hall, but in 1999, the garden was redeveloped and all lower-growth plants replaced, although the overall shape and path-structure remains as they were originally in the 1940s.
