The Contades park

This park was originally a promenade outside the city walls created in 1764 by Marshal de Contades, then commander of the Province of Alsace, on the site of a shooting range. It soon attracted Strasbourg’s polite society as a popular promenade spot. The park covered a much bigger area then than it does today. When the Neustadt (new town) was developed during the Reichsland period (1871-1918), the park shrank considerably. Incorporated into the urban plan, it became a key structural and ornamental feature of one of the most luxurious districts of the new town. The cast-iron kiosk dates from the 1880s. It was previously located on Place Broglie before it was moved in 19001.
