Owner description:
Ths idyllic little house is a great place to stop on your walk along the river Akerselva. The name Honse-Lovisas hus (Hen-Lovisa's house) comes from a literary character. It was built in 1800 as a sawmiller's house. Today it is a café and cultural meeting place, where the arts and crafts of today meet tradition and history of the past. Honse-Lovisas hus has handmade arts and crafts for sale. Every day except Monday you can get a cup of coffee and a delicious piece of cake, or a little something for lunch.

Owner description:
St. Hanshaugen is one of Oslo's largest parks, just north of the city centre. This popular recreational area is great for walks, and from the top of the hill you have a nice view of Oslo. History St. Hanshaugen was originally a bare rock hill. In the 1840s the name St. Hanshaugen (midsummer hill) came into use, as the hill was a popular place for midsummer celebrations. In 1855 it was decided that parts of the hill was to be planted, and a big part of the hill was turned into a park in the next 30 years. The park also got a park keeper house, an artificial creek and a pavilion on the square Festplassen, and the park was expanded. Through the years, a number of statues were also placed in the park. In 1936, the park got an open-air café on Festplassen - the square on top of the hill - which is still a popular summer café today.

Owner description:
Paulus Church is a brick church in Neo-Gothic style inaugurated in 1892. Architect: Henrik Bull Bull wanted the church to harmonize with the park outside (Birkelunden), so instead of the usual orientation with the chancel in the east, the Paulus church has the entrance to the east - facing the park and the school. Service every Sunday at 11 am. The church is open when possible on weekdays between 10 am and 2 pm.
