Krist kirkegård, Heritage cemetery in Hammersborg, Norway.

The cemetery spans across Grubbegata, featuring wrought-iron crosses and stone monuments amid grass areas and old trees in central Oslo.

Following the great fire of 1624, King Christian IV ordered the establishment of this burial ground alongside the temporary Christkirken chapel.

The cemetery contains the graves of numerous military officers, statesmen, and the family members of painter Edvard Munch, including his parents.

Visitors can access the cemetery between May 1 and October 1, from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, with research resources available through Oslo municipality.

The Peststøtten monument, Norway's oldest outdoor public memorial, commemorates victims of the 1654 plague outbreak at this location.
