Alfred Hensel (8 March 1880 – 15 September 1969) was a German architect and director of the Nuremberg parks department. He won a gold medal for town planning in the art competitions at the 1928 Summer Olympics.[1] He was awarded the medal for his work on the sports and leisure park on the eastern bank of Dutzendteich Lake in Nuremberg.[2][3] At the time the arena - now the Max-Morlock-Stadion - was described as "the most beautiful stadium in the world".[4]
