Hiking

The central Kennedyplatz, which was called Gildenplatz from around 1953 to 1964, connects the pedestrian zones after its redesign in 1989, and now includes an underground parking garage. Kennedyplatz was built over before World War II and therefore did not develop organically over time. Essen's Amerikahaus has stood on the southern part of the square since 1952.
