thumb| Holy Cross Church ruins thumb|St. Hallvard's Cathedral ruins Minneparken is situated in Gamle Oslo adjacent to Oslo torg at Gamlebyen in Oslo, Norway. The park is bounded by St. Hallvards plass and Oslo gate in the west, Bispegata in the south, St. Halvards gate in the southeast, Egedes gate in the east and Arups gate in the north.
The 3.4 hectare park contains the excavated ruins of several buildings dating from the Middle Ages. Archaeologist Gerhard Fischer (1890–1977), who led an excavation in the 1920s, made a proposal for a memorial park which was approved by the municipality in 1928.
