Wergelandsparken, Public park in central Kristiansand, Norway.
The rectangular park contains large trees and seasonal flower displays, with 8,500 bulb flowers in spring replaced by 7,770 summer blooms in June.
Oscar Wergeland established this green space between 1859 and 1860, which later received a statue of his brother Henrik designed by Gustav Vigeland in 1908.
The park stands among historical structures including the Latin School from 1736, City Hall from 1864, and the Cathedral constructed in 1885.
The central location at coordinates 58.146667, 7.995556 makes the park accessible for visitors exploring the surrounding educational and administrative buildings.
A renovation group collected over one million Norwegian Kroner in 1999 to add new lighting systems and maintain the English landscape garden style.
