The park is in size and is among the largest urban gardens of Germany. Only the '' Tempelhofer Park'' (previously Berlin's Tempelhof airport) and Munich's ''Englischer Garten'' are larger.

Kleiner Tiergarten ("Small Tiergarten") is a park in Moabit, Berlin, Germany. Location The park is located in Moabit, a division of Mitte, the central borough of Berlin. It is bounded to the north by '' Turmstraße'', ''Alt-Moabit'' to the south, ''Ottostraße'' to the west, and ''Wilsnacker Straße'' to the east.
