The long, rectangular square between Altona train station and Altona town hall is largely designed as a park. It was originally laid out in 1897 as "Kaiserplatz". During the Weimar Republic it was renamed "Platz der Republik" in 1922. During the National Socialist era it was called "Adolf-Hitler-Platz" from 1933 onwards. After the merger of Hamburg and Altona it was renamed "Reichsplatz" in 1938, as there was already an "Adolf-Hitler-Platz" in Hamburg. After the Second World War the park was given the name it had in 1922.
