Carl Berners plass

It is named after Carl Christian Berner (1841–1918), a Norwegian politician for the Liberal Party.

He was member of the Council of State Division in Stockholm 1891–92, and Norwegian Minister of Education and Church Affairs 1891–93.

Carl Berners plass is an underground rapid transit station located on the Grorud Line of the Oslo Metro, and a tram stop on the Sinsen Line of the Oslo Tramway.

In September 2007, a project for improving the square's visuals and traffic-related capabilities was passed.

Both the square and the subway station figure prominently and significantly in Per Petterson's novel I curse the River of Time (2010).
