St. Halvards plass, alternativt St. Hallvards plass,[1] är en liten öppen plats mellan Minneparken och Oslo gate i Gamlebyen i Oslo.
Platsen anlades 1867, under en tidsperiod då de första stenhusen uppfördes i Gamlebyen och det fanns stora planer på byggande av flervåningsbostadshus i området. St. Halvards gade var från medeltiden infartsgata från nordost och ledde till Østre strete. Denna gavs en skarp vinkel, så att den slutade vinkelrätt i Oslo gate söder om St. Hallvards plass och Oslo torg.
På flera kartor, bland annat sådana från 1816 och 1843 går det en gata från Oslo gate snett uppåt till St. Halvards gate. Mellan denna gata och Oslo gate, till större delen ovanpå Hallvardskatedralens ruiner, fanns en mängd hus, varav många hade källare som var byggda av sten från ruinen. Först 1861 blev ruinen synlig efter utgrävningar i St. Halvards strete. År 1865 gjordes fortsatta utgrävningar av arkeologen Nikolay Nikolaysen för Foreningen til norske fortidsmindesmærkers bevaring, varvid framkom var kyrkan exakt legat.
På en karta från 1869 hade Galgebergsgaden bytt namn till St. Halvards plads, vilken gick snett ned mot Oslo gate. De byggnader som låg ovanpå ruinen efter Hallvardskatedralen revs efterhand och Minneparken anlades i stället där 1932.
St. Halvards plass är triangulär i formen och längs platsen finns två flerbostadshus, varav ett från slutet av 1800-talet. Det andra är ritat av den senere stadsarkitekten Harald Aars i sen jugendstil och uppfördes 1911–1912.[2]
Vid St. Halvards plass låg tidigare spårvägshållplatsen "St. Halvards plass" för trafik på linjerna 18 och 19 mot centrum, och på andra sidan av gatan för trafik i riktning Ljabru. Hållplatsen öppnades 1878 på Gamlebylinjen med hästspårvagnar och flyttades 2020 till Dronning Eufemias gate väster om Oslo torg efter en omföring av linjesträckningen.

No. XLIX. CITY OF CHRISTIANIA. |
---|
This view was taken from a position recommended by the late honourable Bernard Anker, on the side of a mountain called Egeberg, from whence the city of Christiania, and its noble background of mountains, are seen to the greatest advantage, on which account the spot is the pride of the inhabitants, and the admiration of foreigners. At the bottom of the hill on the right, are some remains of the old city of Opsloe, which was burnt in the year 1624. The buildings on the left, are Opsloe Kirke, and a lunatic hospital. A new road winds on to the right, between some good houses and the ancient palace belonging to the bishops of this see, a high gothic building, with red tiles, seen on the right margin of the picture. This edifice was the residence of the kings and princes of Denmark, in their visits to the city. Across the bay, on the gentle declivity of the hills, is situated the new city, denominated Christiania. Its principal object on the left is the ancient garrison, called Aggerhus, with its fortifications and walls, projected on a rocky peninsula, at the extremity of the city ; to the right are observed the red warehouses, wharfs, and ships in the harbour, up to the custom house ; in succession are seen the hospitable quadrangular mansion, and garden of the Ankers ; the cathedral church, the museum, hospitais, schools, prison, &c. &c Situated on a middle hill, is seen the ancient church called Aggers, and at a greater elevation near the margin, is Ulivold, the seat of John Collett, Esq. Numerous villas are interspersed among the high grounds, as far as Bogstad, which is situated at the feet of the distant hills, nearly over the great church. In the vale below Aggers, is the botanic garden, and not far distant from it, is the site of the new Royal University, now erecting, with residences for nineteen professors, and two lecturers. Parallel with the town, is a long slip of land, from the bridge to below the custom house, having the river on one side, and the bay on the other; on it are the extensive timber and deal-yards, covered rope-yards, places for careening ships, great cranes for putting in their masts, &c. &c. The ships proceed to and from sea, under the walls of the garrison, in the deep water. The other part of this spacious bay, between Christiania and Opsloe, is navigable for boats only, being choaked up with the saw-dust perpetually descending into it from the numerous saw-mills up the river, although a machine is continually at work to remove it. The new road from the city on the foreground, winds up over Egeberg, and leads on to Mos, Frederickstad, Swinesund, and Sweden. The approach to Christiania on this side, is over the summit of the mountain, where on emerging from a forest, the traveller obtains his first view of the city, spread out before him in its whole extent, and producing with its beautiful and magnificent scenery, a grand and most picturesque effect. The prospect is pronounced by tourists, to be unequalled in Europe. The supreme governor of Norway, resides in this town, and the high court of justice is held here. Christiania is also the seat of the primate bishop, who with three others, exercises the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of all Norway. The garrison, under the superintendance of a commandant, has its hospital and school. There is another hospital for the town. The trade is often very considerable, and there is an abundant supply of all sorts of game, provisions, and foreign delicacies. The inhabitants are hospitable and friendly ; scarcely a traveller enters it, without receiving invitations from the opulent, to their public tables.
