At the crown of the Minerva parking garage unfolds a green oasis. A vibrant, public rooftop garden with a mixed-use purpose: to recreate, connect, and relax. Softening and greenery intersect at this escape from a bustling metropolis. Complete with a city park, urban farm, restaurant, and kiosk, there's always something to experience and taste here. Unwind is the motto here, for the city dweller and explorer longing for inspiration and culture.
Brave thirteen floors - on foot or by elevator - and discover a small ecosystem in lofty heights. A green meeting place, to be visited in every season, all year round. For a refreshing walk, tasty lunch, an afternoon of gardening, or just a breath of fresh air. You'll find young professionals working around the corner, serendipitous Amsterdam locals, and curious occasional visitors. Every passerby can revel in the versatility of Minerva Park. A place where organic shapes and paths invite wandering and meeting.
