Hjula Væveri
This industrial complex is perhaps an unusual attraction, but the striking buildings at the waterfall in Akerselva (Aker river) are one interesting legacy of Oslo's manufacturing past. It was the first water powered weaving mill in Norway, and during the late 1800s the largest textile company in Norway. The factory operated for more than 100 years. The water-powered factories along Aker river was an important factor behind Oslo's exceptional growth in the late 1800s. Hjula weaving mill and nearby Nedre Vøyen spinning mill are still standing at the waterfalls. Buildings have been converted to restaurants, shops, TV studios and offices.
Arbeidermuseet -local labour and industrial history
Well-kept workers' dwellings, winding streets and old factory building from the early industrial history of Oslo. Here you also find schools, public pools and factories which also become an integral part of the museum experience.
Pedestrian suspension bridge, crossing the Akerselva river
One of the earliest chain hangers in Europe and the earliest in Norway, leading from the river side park, across the river to the park by the neighborhood of Grünerløkka.
The present building was erected 1920. Afterwards, except during World War II, it has been the most important gathering place for the Jewish community in Norway.
Akerselva
Akerselva is Oslo's main river as it flows from Maridalen lake (Oslo's main water reservoir) to the fjord near the Central station. Previously Oslo's industrial heartland, now the river and its shores is converted into a green corridor almost the entire length from Grünerløkka to Maridalen. Bicycle and pedestrian paths along. Several small waterfalls. Industrial facilities remain as memories of Oslo's manufacturing origins.
bus 37 to St.Hanshaugen
A delightful public park on the highest hill in central Oslo. Great view of the city and surroundings. 1000 meters easy walk from Karl Johan street along Akersgata-Ullevålsveien past Vår Frelsers Gravlund (cemetery). The park has also given name to this popular neighborhood and to the larger administrative district (borough) that includes major parts of central Oslo.
