Youngstorget, Heritage square in Sentrum, Oslo, Norway
The square connects Storgata and Møllergata streets, featuring a central fountain and a colonnade structure along its perimeter.
Constructed in 1846 and initially named Nytorvet, the square received its current name in 1951 to honor Jørgen Young, a wealthy politician and landowner.
The square functions as Norway's political center, hosting the offices of major political parties and labor unions near the Government Quarter.
Multiple bus and tram lines stop near the square, which contains numerous cafes, restaurants, and regular farmers markets selling fresh produce.
The Restaurant Schrøder in St. Hanshaugen displays a 1926 painting by Sigurd Fosnes depicting the daily life at Youngstorget.
