Alter Ückendorfer Friedhof

Gelsenkirchen · Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

Description

The dog park at the Old Ückendorf Cemetery in Gelsenkirchen-Süd is open 24 hours a day. It is fenced in and offers shade for dog owners. Parking is available. The park is small, which can lead to difficulties when there are large numbers of visitors. Some users report issues, such as the lack of a gate at the entrance and muddy paths when it rains. Visitors generally praise the cleanliness of the area.

Breeding & nesting season (orientation)

In North Rhine-Westphalia, leashes are required in pedestrian zones, fenced parks with playgrounds, at events and in public buildings, among other places. Dogs classed as dangerous must be leashed outside your own property; large dogs (from 40 cm at the withers or 20 kg) must be leashed in built-up areas on streets, paths and squares. In forests your dog may only run free on paths; off the paths a leash is required, and nature reserves often have stricter rules. The state recommends leashing dogs from 1 March to 31 July to protect young animals and ground-nesting birds. Cities and municipalities may have additional rules, so follow the signs.

This is a simplified overview, not legal advice. For binding rules in 2026 where you live and walk your dog, contact your local authority (e.g. municipal public order office).
