Horse races took place here from 1875-1970, which were known and loved far beyond the city limits and attracted up to 30,000 visitors.
Hence the equestrian fountain on the market square as a memorial!
In 1971 the city of Castrop-Rauxel acquired the site.
A beautifully landscaped park with a wonderful view over Castrop!
Always worth a walk.
