Fredens Park

Fredens Park is a park in Østerbro, Copenhagen. The park is located along Fredensgade and between Amorparken at Rigshospitalet and Sortedams Lake. The location at Fredensgade means that the park is not as suitable as a recreational area. The park was created in 1973 when the municipality tore down some residential blocks to make room for the Søringen project. However, this project was shelved in 1975 and the park was allowed to remain.
