The Vigeland park

Vigelandsparken

The Vigeland park (Frognerparken) is the main cultural attraction in Oslo. The park covers an area of 80 acres. The 212 sculptures are all modeled in full size by Gustav Vigeland. He also designed the architectural setting and the layout of the grounds. The sculptures are placed on an 850 meter long axis divided into 5 main units: Main Entrance, The Bridge with the children's playground, The Fountain, The Monolith Plateau and The Wheel of Life. The whole human life cycle is the theme of this park - where you can see sculptures of man from birth to death. The park is public and open all the time.More information is available on the park's web page:http://www.vigeland.museum.no/no/vigelandsparken
