The Combatants Park (Polish: Park Kombatantów), also known as the Koelichen Park (Polish pronunciation: [kɔ.ɛˈli.xɛn]; Polish: Park Koelichenów), is an urban park in Warsaw, Poland, located within the Włochy district. It is placed between Obrońców Pokoju, Cianista, Świerszcza, Chrościckiego, and Łuki Wielkie Streets, within the neighbourhood of New Włochy. It has an area of 5.06 ha (1250.353 acres).
