[3][4] The Sculpture Park has been initiated and financed by property director and art collector Christian Ringnes (born 1954).
[6] It was fully established in February 2015, including accrued trails, water surface and at least 25 sculptures deployed.
The capital of NOK 350 million was set aside at the time to cover purchases of additional sculptures, up to a total of eighty, and the operation of the park for at least 50 years.
[7][8][9][10][3] Adjacent to the sculpture park there is also an indoor museum (open every day 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.), located in Lunds Hus, which presents the Ekeberg area's history and nature.
Lunds hus is a white villa from 1891 and a base of the Ekebergparken Sculpture Park.
