Nygårdsparken, Urban park in Bergen, Norway
Nygårdsparken spans 172,896 square meters with winding paths, open grass areas, and numerous trees representing different species throughout the grounds.
The park originated in 1880 when physicians Joachim Georg Wiesener and Klaus Hanssen established the Park Association of Nygaard, leading to its official opening in 1885.
In 1898, the park transformed into an exhibition space featuring displays from Nansen's polar expeditions and included Bergen's first elevator in the Panorama tower.
The park connects to multiple entry points, with access from Florida Bybane stop at the lower section and the University of Bergen's Student Centre at the upper area.
The park maintains its own podcast called Parkpodden, which shares stories and information about the space through digital storytelling.
