Description
Kvadraturen Self-Guided Walking Tour
Kvadraturen is a special neighbourhood in the southern part of Oslo city centre. This is where the city was relocated to and rebuilt following a devastating fire in 1624 that destroyed the old city centre. The new Oslo (then called Christiania) was built in a distinct grid pattern (‘kvadraturen’) and wooden structures were forbidden. While many of the original buildings are now gone, some 17th century gems remain, making Kvadraturen a beautiful place to walk in Oslo.
