Egertorget, Pedestrian mall at Karl Johans gate and Øvre Slottsgate intersection, Oslo, Norway
Egertorget features intersecting streets with numerous retail establishments, outdoor cafes, and a central position in the commercial district of Oslo.
The square emerged in 1840 when authorities demolished Stabellgården and Egergården buildings to create a proper connection between Karl Johans gate and Øvre Slottsgate.
Street performers, musicians, and entertainers fill the square during summer months, creating a meeting point for residents and visitors in central Oslo.
The location provides direct access to Stortinget Station on the Oslo Metro system and contains multiple pedestrian pathways to explore the city center.
The Freia clock, installed in 1909 as the first illuminated advertisement in Oslo, remains a central landmark within the square.
