From Christiania Torv, we enter the 700-year-old Akershus Fortress, which offers Oslo’s most iconic view of the fjord. Afterward, we take the tram to Vigeland Sculpture Park, home to the 17-meter-tall Monolith. The tour concludes after a walk through the park.
At Christiania Torv, we travel back in time—specifically to 1624, when the Danish-Norwegian King Christian IV pointed to the ground and declared: "Here the city shall stand!" You will hear the story of the Renaissance city before the tour continues to Akershus Fortress. Here, you will learn how the fortress—originally built as a royal residence in the Middle Ages—was transformed into a Renaissance castle surrounded by bastion fortifications. After a short tram ride to the Frogner Park, the tour proceeds to Oslo’s most visited park; Vigeland Sculpture Park, where it concludes with a guided walk through the park.
Wear comfortable shoes (we will be walking on cobblestones inside the fortress) and dress according to the weather. The tram ticket is not included, but you can use a standard Ruter ticket purchased via the Ruter app. Please feel free to contact me in advance if you have any special needs or requests regarding the tour or come to the meeting-point. Welcome!
