Klosterenga or Klosterenga park is a park in Oslo, located in the transition between Old Town and Grønland.[1] [2] [3] The park route extends up to Galgeberg. It was made as part of a housing project.[4]
Klosterenga goes towards a northwest–southeast direction, almost . It is bordered by the wall around Oslo Prison in the north, Nonnegata and the homes north of Schweigaards gate in the south, Grønlands park – Botsparken in the west and Kjølberggata and Galgeberg in the east. Jarlegata runs through Klosterenga. In the east is a sports field.
Hovinbekken previously flowed through the park's area, and this is to be reopened through the park.[5]
In 1999, the Klosterenga sculpture park was completed, with sculptures by Bård Breivik, including "Den flerkulturelle plass" with sculptures and a pool at the east end, where there is also a sports field. The sculpture park was refurbished in 2005–2007.[6]
In October 2013, traces of medieval settlements were found in the park; it was previously unknown that people should have lived there at that time.
