Mannerheim Park
Mannerheim Park.

The Mannerheim Park is a small urban park in Oulu, Finland. With a fountain made from rough granite blocks and plenty of benches, the park is a favorite hangout for many. The park is adjacent to the KELA (Social Services) building, and features a grill kiosk and a children's play area with rides and swings.

The park was named after Carl Gustav Mannerheim in honour of his 75th birthday in 1942[1].
