The park was named after Oscar Rennebohm, the 32nd Governor of Wisconsin, who was also a prominent Madison pharmacist.
The park's location in the Sunset Village neighborhood contributes to a significant portion of its traffic from local residents living within walking distance.
The park serves as a common site for local youth soccer practices during the spring and fall seasons.
Rennebohm Park is a neighborhood recreational facility located in Madison’s Sunset Village, serving as a hub for local sports and outdoor activity. The grounds feature two tennis courts and multiple multi-purpose soccer fields that accommodate youth leagues and informal matches. A dedicated children's play area provides modern equipment for families. The park is characterized by its open, grassy layout, making it suitable for field sports and casual recreation. It is managed by the City of Madison Parks Division, ensuring regular maintenance of its athletic surfaces and green space. The park occupies approximately 10 acres of land, integrated directly into a quiet residential setting.
The elevated grassy berm overlooking the soccer fields provides the best vantage point for action shots.
