About Sommerroparken
Sommerroparken (Sommerro Park), formerly called Solliparken, is a small park at Solli plass in the Frogner district of Oslo: a narrow grass-covered strip about 200 metres long and at most 8 metres wide between Henrik Ibsens gate and Sommerrogata, with benches, trees and bushes. It takes its name from the large Sommerro estate of the 18th-century merchant Bernt Anker, and was laid out by the Society for the Welfare of Oslo between 1850 and 1874. In 1902 Auguste Rodin's sculpture The Man with the Key, depicting Jean d'Aire from The Burghers of Calais, was unveiled here. The park was renovated in 2009.
