Christieparken is a municipal park on Landås in Bergen near Brann stadion. Some facts: The old stone bridges are fine memorials of several hundred years of traffic through the area. One of the bridges, Landåsbroen from approx. 1750, is supposed to be the oldest bridge in Bergen. Landåselven flows through the area and supplies water to Christie Mølle in the far north of the park. The water was known for its good quality. Overview of the plants in Christiehaven are rips, plum trees (blue and yellow), gray pears, walnut trees (ripe nuts in good years), blood beech, beech, golden rain. Linden, maple, fir, oak, lilac, elm, beech, lilac, chestnut, hazel, maple and rowan. Some history: Bergen municipality bought Haukeland farm in 1897, and the municipality secured the park area in 1934. When Wilhelm Frimann Koren Christie returned to Bergen in 1818 after participating as a member of parliament at Eidsvoll, he planted seeds he had brought with him on a piece of open field in Fridalen by the river from Ulriken owned by Christie's cousin, the provost Edvard Hagerup. In about 1820, Christie and members of the group of friends "Quodlibet" founded an interest society "Symposium" to create a nature park. The property was fenced and they built a "Lystpark", a nature park based on the English pattern. They cleared, made bridges over the river and planted trees, one piece with beech represented Denmark, and one with spruce symbolized Norway (probably the first spruce planting in Western Norway). The trees were christened with beer or gooseberry wine and each of the friends had their own stone bench with a table. They visited each other and the conviviality abounded with discussions, cheerful stories and patriotic songs.

My fav park in Bergen. Small but offers tranquility at its best. Relaxing on the bench and we can see Ulriken on the back and Lyderhorn at the front.

Gamle og store trær med fugler som synger fint nå i juni. Elven som sildrer gjennom parken. Store gressflater. Benker til å sette seg på for å nyte stillheten eller ta en prat. Cristie parken er magisk. Ta deg en tur.
