The Volkspark Hasenheide is a park of around fifty hectares in the Berlin quarter of Neukölln on the border with Kreuzberg.

[4] Construction began 1936, only after the monument to the father of the German gymnastics movement, Friederich Ludwig Jahn, was moved to a new location.

It towers around the surrounding area, reaching a height of 68 metres (223 ft) above sea level.

The shooting range was removed and the area was landscaped according to the plans of Neukölln gardening authority, Kurt Pöthig.
