This stone circular area of benches and flower pots was part of a large children's recreation center with a spacious park from 1915 to 1972. After its demolition in 1972, a hotel was planned here, but this ultimately did not happen. Today, this is a "lost place" with some ruins (below the circular area) and other remnants.
