Fagerborg Upper Secondary School

Fagerborg is a school building in Oslo located at Pilestredet 109 that houses classrooms, specialized learning spaces, and administrative offices within its structured layout. The building retains its original architectural design and is registered as a protected heritage site.

Architect Harald Aars designed the building in 1915 as a secondary school, which operated in that role until 2014. After that year, the facility was converted to serve as a middle school for different educational purposes.

The school shaped the education of notable Norwegian creative figures, including poets Rudolf Nilsen and Rolf Jacobsen, whose work continues to be remembered in the country's literary tradition. This connection to important artists reflects the institution's lasting place in Norwegian cultural memory.

The building is accessible by public transportation, with several bus and tram stops located near the main entrance. Visitors should be aware this is an active school facility, so access may be restricted during certain times.

The building was designed by one of Norway's leading architects of its time and is now among the country's protected cultural monuments. The preservation of its original details shows the historical value of this early 20th century school architecture.
