Markensgate, kristiansand, Norway - a photo on Flickriver

            The town square is located in the middle of Markens with the Kristiansand Cathedral. The town square is filled with restaurants and cafes at the sidelines. It starts from Markens gate in the west and Wergelandsparken in the east. Wergelandsparken was created by Oscar Wergeland, Henrik Wergelands brother, in 1859 and finished in 1860. In 1866 there was placed a water fountain in the middle of the park, but this was later moved in 1908 for a statue of Henrik Wergeland in honor of his 100th birthday even though Henrik died in 1845. The statue was made by Gustav Vigeland and still stands there today.

Markens gate ends with Otterdalsparken, a park often referred to as Nupenparken since it was design by Norwegian contemporary artist Kjell Nupen whom was born and died in Kristiansand.
