„Sportpark Styrum“ in Mülheim an der Ruhr is a family-friendly and multi-generational sports and neighbourhood park that offers low-threshold, but also challenging and unusual activities. On behalf of and in close cooperation with Mülheim Sportservice (MSS), landscape architects DTP Landschaftsarchitekten started designing this park in 2017 and built it in two phases. The park was handed over for public use in spring 2022.
The new sports park, located on the site of a former clay court, was created with the enthusiastic participation of local clubs, residents, athletes, school pupils and pre-school children. The park‘s low-threshold, free and stimulating sports offering is the key that can also introduce users to the activities offered by clubs, and educational and cultural institutions. This is supported by firmly established sports and social supervision on site. At the same time, the park has challenging elements for both beginners and advanced athletes.
