Nissens Latin and Secondary School's building was ready for occupancy in 1847. It was located in a large garden. In the back building there was a gymnasium and an apartment for the janitor (caretaker). When the Christiania Handicraft and Industrial Association took over the property, the garden was developed and an open-air restaurant was built. The wing to Kristian IVs gate was built in 1905 and the entire building complex was expanded to five floors after a loft fire in 1918.(Submitted on August 4, 2025.)
"The Craftsman" is a well-known term for Oslo residents. It has been a place for meetings and socializing, exhibitions and bazaars throughout the years. The banquet hall was decorated byPer Krohg and Alf Rolfsen.Photographed by Andrew Ruppenstein, June 23, 20252. Former Nissens Latin and Secondary School and marker
